- Celtic returned to the top of the William Hill Premiership on Saturday, defeating Motherwell 2-0 at Fir Park to ease mounting pressure on Celtic Manager Martin O'Neill.

- Camilo Duran opened the scoring in the ninth minute with a strike from 19 yards, while Benjamin Nygren added a second goal in the 58th minute to secure victory.
- Portuguese winger Jota made his long-awaited return from a 533-day absence in the 73rd minute, while travelling supporters displayed banners criticizing Celtic majority shareholder Dermot Desmond throughout the match.
- Before kick-off, fans paid tribute to Danny McGrain following his Alzheimer's diagnosis and honored late former Well chairman Brian McCafferty with a minute's applause.
