  "account": "Celtic will host Hibernian at Easter Road today in their pursuit of a four-point lead at the top of the Premiership table. The team has secured two wins since returning from an international break, including a 2-0 victory over Motherwell and a dominant 7-1 defeat of Hearts. However, a recent Europa League loss to Celta Vigo has left Celtic eager to bounce back with a win against Hibernian. Martin O’Neill introduced Kasper Høgh as a replacement for Haissem Hassan in the starting XI, while Alistair Johnston and Cameron Carter-Vickers return to the squad as substitutes. The match is scheduled for 12noon at Easter Road, and fans can follow the action on the club's Match Centre.",
