A stride has been hit by Ange Postecoglou's Celtic side this month, with five consecutive wins, four of them in the league, chalked up.

Livingston are in Parkhed tomorrow, at a stadium they've never won in, to try and fend off Celtic from making it six.

Postecoglou brought in Mikey Johnston against Hibs during the week after a couple of impressive cameos before that and if he stays in, Kyogo will almost certainly start. 

The Japanese forward may be moved to a wide position though to accommodate Giorgos Giakoumakis.

The attacking third is normally where any uncertainty lies with regards to the XI, as the defence and midfield take a stronger shape on a weekly basis, but a change is likely to be enforced this time with Tom Rogic suffering a hamstring injury during the week.

Alison McConnell and Andy Bargh have a think about who might start.

The chance for Celtic to go back to the top of the table - for a night at least - looks certain to be the catalyst for another win tomorrow afternoon. 

With the gap at the top closed to just two points and the chance to exert pressure on Rangers by going to the top of the league, at least until the Ibrox side play Motherwell on Sunday, the aim for Postecoglou will be to come flying out of the traps as they face up to Livingston. 

The only sour note of Celtic's trip East on Wednesday night was an injury to Tom Rogic. Hibs had been unable to cope with the Australian until his hamstring issue gave the Easter Road some respite.

And while Ange Postecoglou will be keen to keep Rogic playing given his current form it would be unwise to risk the midfielder should there be any doubts at all about his fitness.

That may mean a recall for Nir Bitton given that James McCarthy has also been dealing with an issue.

Certainly, though, while the starting line-up may need to be tweaked it is unlikely there will be any change in philosophy as Celtic look to continue their recent momentum.

Livingston will look to minimise space and restrict Celtic as much as they can but the intelligence of Kyogo Furuhashi and the Callum McGregor ensures that Celtic have players with both ability and game awareness to break them down. 

Mikey Johnston may feel that he has done enough to hang onto his starting jersey and it will be interesting to see whether he starts for the second successive game. 

Prediction: Hart; Ralston, Starfet, Carter-Vickers, Juranovic; McGregor, Bitton, Turnbull; Jota, Kyogo, Johnston.

Compared to the lay of Ange Postecoglou's land a month or two ago, the grass is certainly much greener, undoubtedly helped by a more settled side becoming more familiar with each other every day.

Fewer positions in the Celtic team seem to be debatable, with the spine of it rarely changing. The wide areas are where the question marks loom but, even still, Tony Ralston and Jota are almost stick-ons for now.

Liel Abada hit the ground running when he arrived from Israel but hasn't started the last two games after a slight dip in form. He may be given a chance to resurrect that early season promise he showed to the Celtic fans.

That might be at the expense of Mikey Johnston, keeping Kyogo in a central position rather than bringing in Giorgos Giakoumakis as the number nine for the afternoon, although he'll want to build on his goal against St Johnstone last week.

At left-back, Josip Juranovic is covering for Greg Taylor and has the jersey over Adam Montgomery.

In midfield, Tom Rogic has been a starter under Postecoglou but after being subbed with an injury midweek, the Aussie could spend the day recovering and Nir Bitton is the first reserve at the moment, pushing Callum McGregor further up.

Prediction: Hart; Ralston, Carter-Vickers, Starfelt, Juranovic; Bitton, McGregor, Turnbull; Abada, Kyogo, Jota.
