Celtic 0 – 0 Livingston

Celtic rediscovered their winning form as goals from Kyogo Furuhashi and Liam Scales guaranteed they would top the Scottish Premiership at Christmas.
After back-to-back defeats for the first time in a decade, the Hoops knew they needed a victory against Livingston to stop Rangers being able to overtake them when they place Motherwell on Sunday.
Celtic were booed off at the end of a wasteful first half, but Kyogo ended his seven-game goal drought after the break to inject some festive cheer into the Parkhead stands.
Defender Liam Scales headed in for his first league goal of the season soon after as they made sure of their win against a Livi side who offered very little.
They have been without a win since October and remain five points adrift at the bottom of the table.
