GORDON WELL AWARE OF STAGGIES THREAT

CRAIG Gordon has flagged up Celtic’s Hampden horror show against Ross County early this year as a reminder of the Staggies’ danger.

The Highlanders created a massive upset in January by coming from behind to beat Ronny Deila’s 10-man Celtic 3-1 in a Betfred Cup semi-final at the national stadium and end hopes of a Hoops treble.

The champions have become a different proposition under new boss Brendan Rodgers and have gone 22 domestic games unbeaten this season.

And after a 3-0 win at Hamilton on Saturday the Hoops — 14 points clear of Rangers at the top of the table with a game in hand over their Old Firm rivals — are expected to make it 14 league wins in a row when they host County tonight.

However, Gordon knows standards will need t o remain high.

“They are a very difficult team to play against,” said the Parkhead goalkeeper.

“We have done well against them i n recent times but you don’t have to look too far back to the one at Hampden where they managed to beat us.

“So we know if we don’t play up to our standards then we are in for a really tough game.

“We will have to concentrate fully, get our own preparation right and if we do that we will go in with the confidence on the back of what is an incredible unbeaten run.”
