Here we go for the final game of the Scottish Premiership weekend.
Dundee v Celtic (16:30)
Celtic interim manager Martin O'Neill tells BBC Scotland: "I think we will have to go close [to winning all seven remaining games]. No margin for error.
"The defeat at Tannadice has put us under a lot more pressure.
"It's a big challenge. This time last year, Celtic were coasting home. This year it's been different and it's been difficult. It's been catch-up for months and months now.
"When the season opened up, not for one minute did I think I'd be here in early April. After today, it would be great to still be in contention."
Dundee v Celtic (16:30)
Dundee manager Steven Pressley tells BBC Scotland: "It's going to be very hard. It's been the best part of 75 years since Dundee have recorded two home wins [against Celtic] in the league in one season.
"We've demonstrated against them this season that we can get a positive outcome.
"When you play the Old Firm, you have to have that belief.
"I've been consistent about this for some time - we've got a lot of hard work to do. Previous seasons would suggest you need a minimum of 38 points [to stay up]. We just need to retain our league status."
Dundee v Celtic (16:30)
Celtic have not kept a clean sheet in seven league matches.

However, the champions have lost eight league games already this season.
That's double last term's total and five more than the campaign before.
Interim manager Martin O'Neill conceded on Friday that any more dropped points would make finishing first "difficult" before adding "but not impossible".

Allan Preston
Former Hearts defender on BBC Sportsound
Livingston fought for everything. I thought they we really good.
It will be a disappointment for Hearts, but if you'd offered me six games to go and one point clear at the start of the season, I'd have bitten your hand of for it.
Hearts go back to the top of the table, but there will be frustration about dropping points to the league's bottom side.
Livingston's winless run extends to an incredible 30 games but they battled impressively. They're not going down without a fight.

Celtic have only lost one of their last 49 meetings with Dundee in all competitions (W41 D7), winning both of their most recent two this season in the league in December (1-0) and Scottish Cup in February (2-1).
Dundee are unbeaten in their last four home league games (W1 D3), but haven’t gone longer without losing at home within a single season in the Scottish Premiership since February 2017 (7).
Celtic have failed to keep a clean sheet in any of their last seven league matches, last going longer without a shutout in February 2006 under Gordon Strachan (10 games).

He has also prevented 7.1 goals based on his expected goals on target faced (54.1 xGoT to 47 goals conceded, excl. own goals); only Calum Ward (10.3) and Jack Butland (7.5) have a higher xGoT prevented figure in the 2025-26 competition.
