Celtic begins final push
Soccer Betting Lines
05/01/2009 -
Aberdeen, Scotland (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Scottish Premier League season
enters its final stretch this weekend as Celtic travels to Pittodrie Stadium
on Saturday to meet Aberdeen with a one-point lead on second-placed Rangers.
Celtic is searching for its fourth straight SPL title, but with five games to
play, Celtic captain Stephen McManus is calling on his teammates to rise to
the occasion.
"We are one point ahead just now but we're looking upon these games as five of
the biggest we will ever play in," said McManus.
"It's important to take them one at a time. We have to give everything for the
cause and for each other. That's what you need to do to win titles for Celtic.
"This is going to be another tough game on Saturday against Aberdeen but we're
more than ready for the challenge.
"We have five games and we're more than capable of winning all of them.
Likewise, Rangers are capable of winning them all."
Celtic has won three of its last five games with two draws, but Rangers has
won four of five in that time to trim the deficit to a single point, backing
up the claim of McManus.
The Hoops will be returning to the site of their last loss in league play on
Saturday, which came at Aberdeen in 4-2 fashion in January.
However, Gordon Strachan's men have won six games and drawn five since the
setback and they will be hoping to avoid a similar fate on Saturday.
The Dons have gone in the opposite direction since beating Celtic with just
two wins in their last 11 games.
Their poor run of form has dropped Aberdeen into fifth in the table, but they
are still only one point behind fourth-placed Dundee United, and could very
easily grab a spot in Europe with a good finish.
Celtic will be missing Scott Brown for the match because he is out through
suspension, while Barry Robson, Georgios Samaras and Darren O'Dea are each
sidelined with injury.
Aberdeen manager Jimmy Calderwood will be without the suspended Lee Miller,
while injuries have robbed the Dons of Darren Mackie, Zander Diamond, Derek
Young and Jamie Smith.
Rangers will look for its fifth successive win in the league when they host
Hearts on Sunday, while the rest of Saturday's action includes Motherwell
traveling to Falkirk, Hamilton hosting Kilmarnock, Dundee United invading
Hibernian and St Mirren playing host to Inverness.
