2.41pmThe Hoops have racked up the air miles ahead of this afternoon's match, travelling to Kazakhstan for the first leg of their Champions League qualifier earlier this week. Ahead of today's game, Charlie Mulgrew told the team's website: "Everybody has thought a lot about the game. We were very down after the match, all the players and staff. But it's just about being positive now and looking forward to the next game and it's Inverness, and it's good we have a game so quickly to bounce back and hopefully we can do that."
2.45pmInverness's main goal threat this afternoon is likely to come from Billy McKay. The club's manager, Terry Butcher, told The Express that he hopes to keep hold of the striker during this transfer window: "I am happy with the way Billy is scoring goals and I'll be even happier after the September transfer deadline when he is still here. We have a Plan B and a Plan C in place but we don't want to operate those. We want Billy here and I have every confidence he will be."
2.49pmCeltic's record against Caley was good last season, but Butcher's side did manage to sneak a win against the Bhoys at Celtic Park last November, with McKay scoring the only goal of the game. However, their last trip to the champions finished in a 4-1 defeat back in April.
2.52pmNeil Lennon is without several of his regular first-team members this afternoon, with Georgios Samaras, Anthony Stokes and Kris Commons among those missing though injury.
2.55pmAs kickoff approaches, let's make a prediction! Normally, you wouldn't bet against Celtic at home in the league. However, the lengthy injury list, combined with the long trip to Karaganda earlier this week, will surely be taking its toll on the champions. Meanwhile, Inverness have started the season in red-hot form. I can see this being a 2-2 draw this afternoon.
2.57pmThe players are in the tunnel ready to head out for this afternoon's match.

4.54pmA late goal from Adam Matthews helps Celtic come from 2-0 down to share the points with Inverness Caledonian Thistle. The result means there are no teams left in the Scottish Premiership with a 100% record.
4.57pmAs expected, the Bhoys lengthy injury list combined with their Champions League trip midweek meant that Neil Lennon's side weren't at their best this afternoon, while Inverness played superbly for much of the first half.
5.01pmThe result leaves Inverness at the top of the league table, but the Hoops have a game in hand. That's all from Celtic Park this afternoon, but stick around for reaction to this, and all of this afternoon's matches. Thanks for joining me this afternoon, goodbye.
