Warren O’Hora insists Hibs have it in them to cause the biggest upset of the Premiership season so far on Saturday.
The Hibees earned four points from a possible six against Aberdeen and Motherwell in recent games and head to Celtic Park with a bit of confidence.
Celtic are unbeaten this season in the league and have already been handed the title by a number of fans and pundits.
But Hibs centre-back O’Hora says his team will have a game plan and are ‘definitely capable’ of producing a shock result in Glasgow.
Warren O’Hora on Hibs facing Celtic
Asked what Hibs can take from Aberdeen’s 2-2 draw with Celtic at Parkhead as inspiration, O’Hora said: “Yeah look, you have to go back and have a look at those games and see what works for those teams.
“There’s no doubt we’ll have a game plan of our own going into it. As you said, Aberdeen took points off them and we took points off Aberdeen this season as well.
“I’m not going to say it’s an impossible task but it’s a very, very tough one. But it’s something that we’re definitely capable of.”
O’Hora under no illusions however
But O’Hora, despite his clear confidence, does fully understand that it’s going to be a seismic task to get anything out of the game.
The Irishman continued: “I don’t think anyone needs to know from me how tough it is. It’s an amazing place to go and play football and to try and win there is definitely going to be really tough.
“Look, we have to have a go and believe in ourselves, no doubt that we will. The manager and his staff have told us that and we’ll have a right go.”
