Madjid Bougherra is concerned that with Celtic now dumped out of Europe they will concentrate all their energies on winning the SPL title. "This season is very, very hard because Celtic have won almost every game," he said.

"We need to win. We play them at the end of December and this will be a big game for us.

"They are out of Europe and are concentrating only on the championship, the same as us. So we will see what will happen.

"Last season the title was decided in the last game and this season could be the same."
