As David Gray’s men travel to the East End of Glasgow for the second time this season, the Hibs boss is aiming for a first Celtic Park win in 16 years.
Hibs travel to Parkhead full of confidence after their 2-0 victory over St Mirren last weekend, while their weekend opponents are coming off the back of a heavy 4-1 defeat to Stuttgart in the Europa League. The last time The Hibees emerged victorious at Celtic Park was in January 2010, when Daniel Galbraith slotted the ball home past Artur Boruc to give the Leith side a massive three points.
It’s been 16 years now since travelling Hibs fans celebrated a win at Parkhead, however in their last trip to Glasgow’s East End, they defended valiantly to earn a point. As David Gray aims to emulate the heroics of John Hughes’ side 16 years ago, here’s a look at the last Hibs team to beat The Hoops at Celtic Park and where they are now:
