Craig Levein is convinced that the race for the Premiership title is too close to predict, but he remains optimistic that his St Johnstone squad can inject another dose of excitement into the competition this upcoming weekend.
As they gear up to face Celtic at Parkhead on Saturday, St Johnstone is eager to secure crucial points that could bolster their bid for survival in the top flight. With this match against the Glasgow giants likely being their final encounter of the season, Levein is targeting a performance that matches or exceeds what Steven MacLean achieved at Celtic Park earlier in the campaign.
Reflecting on his own experiences managing against Celtic and Rangers, Levein feels confident that his team can potentially cause an upset that would have significant implications for both ends of the table. Despite acknowledging the quality and resilience of the Old Firm teams, Levein believes that a surprise victory is within reach if St Johnstone execute their game plan effectively and capitalize on their opportunities.
Looking ahead to the weekend clash, Levein emphasized the importance of seizing chances and maintaining a disciplined approach on the field. He praised his players for their previous efforts against Celtic and emphasized the need for a similar level of commitment and performance to have a shot at a positive result.
With a focus on hard work, adherence to tactics, and a relentless pursuit of success, Levein is optimistic that St Johnstone can challenge Celtic and potentially come away with a valuable outcome from the game on Saturday.
