Dundee vs Celtic 0:1 Samaras de UCL2410 The defeat sees the Dens Park side fall further behind both St Mirren and Ross County, who both picked up vital points earlier in the day.

Dundee made two changes from the side that were thumped at Inverness CT at the weekend, with Stephen O’Donnell and Ryan Conroy taking the places of Iain Davidson and Nicky Reilly, while the visitors only made one change, with Tony Watt coming in for Lassad Nouioui in attack. Celtic were getting pinned back in their own half by the relegation contenders, but when they did manage to push forward they found former Celt Douglas in form as he managed to save well after a cross from substitute Mikael Lustig was diverted to his own goal by Kyle Benedictus. The visitors doubled their advantage when Hooper broke the Dundee offside trap to get on the end of a long ball from Lustig and the English striker lobbed the ball over Douglas to put Celtic in a commanding position. The league leaders continued to press forward for the remainder of the game, but they couldn’t find a way past Douglas in order to extend their lead as they increased the gap on both Inverness CT and Motherwell at the top of the league to seven points.
