Inverness CT face a trip to Celtic at Celtic Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to break their duck against the hosts. On each previous occasion, the match has ended in defeat for the Caley Thistle.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in February 2008, the The Bhoys carving out a narrow 2 - 1 victory in a Scottish Premier match.
