Celtic reclaimed a four-point lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership on Saturday, leaving Hibernian rooted to the foot of the table. Owen Elding fired Hibees ahead just three minutes into the game at Easter Road, but Celtic quickly levelled when Jason Kerr headed into his own net from a corner two minutes later. Kasper Hogh returned to the starting line-up for Celtic but lacked confidence, wasting two early chances to put the champions ahead.
Camilo Duran scored his 10th goal of the season, hammering the ball into the bottom corner from the edge of the box before the break. Mika Baur tested Raphael Sallinger from distance, and Hibs survived a late flurry of pressure, even bringing defender Grant Hanley on to play up front. Hibs remain a point adrift at the bottom without a league win since August.
Celtic have won nine of their last 10 in the Premiership. There were blemishes for the visitors, with Alistair Johnston's return from injury lasting less than 20 minutes before he had to go off, while Hogh again drew a blank before being replaced in the 64th minute.
