History of the Inverness Caledonian Thistle v Celtic fixture
Inverness Caledonian Thistle prepare to entertain Celtic at Caledonian Stadium at lunchtime on Saturday, looking to improve on a dire past record against their opponents. It does not make pleasant reading, winning just 3 of the 16 games played, and losing 10.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Caledonian Stadium was earlier this season, as the visitors ran out cosy 2-4 winners in a Scottish Premier match.
