Lennon looking to celebrate Celtic's SPL title at Parkhead

Neil Lennon is hoping Celtic can secure the Scottish Premier League title in front of their own supporters.

The Hoops went 15 points clear at the SPL summit courtesy of their 3-0 win over Hibernian at Parkhead on the weekend and can now win the Premiership in the next match although they have to wait until Monday's draw for the final five matches to see where it will be played.

"We know we only need a point now to wrap it up and we will see what the fixtures bring on Monday," said Lennon who had Kris Commons' double and a goal from Mikael Lustig to thank for the win.

"People were coming in with the scores (of Motherwell's eventual 2-2 draw with St Mirren) so we had to sit and wait but it was no big disappointment not to win it today.

"It would be nice to win it at home as we haven't done that for a while. It would be nice to have a full house and give the fans something to enjoy.

"As for today, I was looking for a good performance and I got that.

"We were dominant. The strikers were a lot better and Anthony Stokes and Gary Hooper were the catalysts for a lot of good stuff so I am really pleased."
