3 4 DRAWING A BLANK 1

THIS was the first time Celtic have failed to score in 14 games this season and the first domestic game they’ve drawn a blank in more than a year – since a 2-0 defeat at Livingston last October left Neil Lennon, above, unable to look. That’s 37 games ago.

5 DRAWING A BLANK 2

CELTIC didn’t have a shot on target and you have to go back 11 years for the last time that happened in a league game. That sorry stat came in a 0-0 draw at Hibs in the penultimate game of the 2008-09 season as the Hoops lost the title to Rangers.

POINTING TO SUCCESS?

RANGERS’ haul of 29 points from their first 11 games is their best start since they returned to the top flight five seasons ago. The last time they bettered it was 2010-11 – when they last went on to become champions – as they took 31 from their first 33.
