Hibs claim impressive stat after 2-2 draw with Celtic
The Hoops have conceded just 12 goals domestically this season - 10 in the league and two in the Betfred Cup.
And of that number, 50 per cent were scored by Hibs.
An Anthony Stokes penalty and Oli Shaw’s first senior goal for Hibs were the only two goals Celtic conceded in the League Cup, as the two sides met in the last four with Celtic running out 4-2 winners at Hampden.

Hibs are also the only Scottish side to have scored more than one goal against Celtic in a single match this season - and have managed it on three separate occasions.
The other goals Celtic have conceded came against Hearts, Hamilton, St Johnstone, Kilmarnock and Motherwell, on two separate occasions.
Esmael Goncalves scored in the season’s curtain raiser as Hearts lost 4-1 at Celtic Park, while Alex Gogic netted for Hamilton in Celtic’s 4-1 win at the SuperSeal Stadium.
