Derek McInnes excited by visit of Celtic

Aberdeen boss Derek McInnes urges his side to enjoy Tuesday's visit of champions Celtic in the Scottish Premiership.

Aberdeen boss Derek McInnes has told his players to enjoy Tuesday's visit of champions Celtic in the Scottish Premiership.

The Hoops, who are 24 points clear at the top of the table, travel to Pittodrie Stadium without having tasted defeat in the league this season.

"It's the perfect game for us," he is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News. "Any time Celtic come to town it's always eagerly anticipated and it's a good challenge for us.

"I think we should go into the game looking forward to it and I think we should go into the game with confidence, certainly based on our performances against Celtic this season.

"If we put in the performance that we are capable of, there is no question that we can go and try and get a positive result."

Aberdeen are currently unbeaten in their last four games in the Scottish Premiership.
