Despite the setback, Brendan Rodgers’ side remains comfortably atop the table, holding an 11-point lead after a dominant season so far.
St Mirren, sitting fifth, come into this game on the back of two successive losses to Dundee and Kilmarnock.

Here’s what that time was like in the United States:
Celtic will most likely be Miss James Forrest and Odin Thiago Holm, they are expected to return later in January.
Brendan Rodgers may shake things up, especially in midfield, following their disappointing 3-0 loss to Rangers. Luke McCowan and Arne Engels could feature in the starting XI.
Celtic predicted XI (4-3-3, from the left): Schmeichel (GK) -Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Trusty, Valle-McCowan, McGregor, Engels-Kuhn, Idah, Palma.
Injured: Thiago Holm (calf), Forrest (foot)Suspended: None
For St Mirren, Charles Dunne remains the confirmed absence and is expected to return later this month.
After consecutive defeats, Stephen Robinson can combine his alignment to revive the impulse and raise a more powerful challenge in Celtic Park.
St. Mirren’s Predicted XI (Left 3-4-3): Balcombe (GK)-Fraser, Iacovitti, Taylor-Bwomono, Phillips, Boyd-Munce, John-Idowu, Kiltie, Mandron.
LESTRADO: Dunne (hamstrings) Raised: None
The tale promotes Bhoys, with nine wins and one draw in their last 10 games against St Mirren. However, Rodgers will require an immediate retirement from his team as he looks to maintain his dominant position in the league.
