Celtic restored their four-point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership with a narrow 1-0 win against struggling Kilmarnock. Liam Scales scored the decisive goal in the 26th minute, hooking Camilo Duran's cross into the top corner. The victory marked back-to-back wins for the Hoops ahead of the international break, despite Kasper Hogh's early goal being ruled out for a foul by Mika Baur on Greg Kiltie.

Celtic dominated possession but struggled to convert chances, with Benjamin Nygren missing a second-half penalty. Kilmarnock, now bottom of the table, had chances of their own, including a late opportunity for Ieuan Owen that went unconverted. The match was briefly interrupted by boos from the stands during a moment of silence for Remembrance Sunday.
