Celtic prepare to entertain Aberdeen at Celtic Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The The Bhoys are clearly on top, having won 85 and lost only 25 of the 136 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Celtic Park was less than a year ago, in April 2008, the The Bhoys carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Scottish Premier match.
