David Gray Eyes Celtic Score Today Live Boost in Sunday Test
celtic score today live arrives with Hibernian hosting Celtic on Sunday at Easter Road, a match that sits between two different races. Celtic are three points behind Hearts in the Scottish Premiership title chase, while Hibernian still have fourth place in view with four games remaining.
Gray Keeps Hibernian Focus
David Gray said the visit from Celtic does not change his approach. “It's really not awkward for me, it's very self-explanatory, we're professional, we do everything we can to win games,” he said, setting the tone for a fixture that asks Hibernian to handle title pressure and their own European push at the same time.
Gray also pointed to the pace of the post-split run-in. “I understand the noise, I grew up in the city, I know the noise that goes around it, but the first weekend of post-split fixtures shows that results can change very quickly.”
Easter Road Stakes
A Hibernian win would tighten their chase for guaranteed European football by closing the gap on Motherwell. They start the weekend six points behind Motherwell with four games remaining, so the margin for error is already thin.
Celtic bring a separate pressure point into Easter Road. They trail Hearts by three points in the title race, and both Edinburgh clubs are chasing a title history that has not been touched since Hearts last won the top-flight in 1960.
Motherwell And Hearts Pressure
Gray kept the focus on what his side can still control. “I still believe that we still have enough games to go that gives us a chance to try and finish fourth, so we need to make sure we do everything we can between now and then to try and do that,” he said.
He added: “There will be twists and turns between now and the end of the season, that's for sure…” That leaves Sunday as more than a simple league fixture for Hibernian, with points needed now if fourth place is still going to be reachable and if the gap to Motherwell is going to narrow before the run-in tightens further.
Gray's final point was direct: “My full focus is on Hibernian Football Club, this group of players, and making sure we get as many points as we can.”
