Celtic’s league campaign kicked off last August with a comprehensive 4-0 win at home to Kilmarnock, while the Hoops also won the corresponding fixture at Rugby Park.

The most recent meeting between the sides came at Celtic Park back in January when Brendan Rodgers’ side won 2-1 in a Scottish Cup tie.

The aim this weekend is to make it a fourth win in a row over Derek McInnes’ side, knowing that events elsewhere will take care of themselves.

“It’s about us going out there tomorrow and performing the way we want to perform and winning the game,” Carter-Vickers said.

“We need to focus on our game tomorrow and then whatever happens after that, happens.

“You want to continue to play well and win matches right up until the end of the season. You want to win every match, and that’s definitely our aim to finish as strong as we can.

'At the beginning of the season, the aim was to win everything domestically and we’ve got one cup in the bag, and we’re still in a position where we can win two more.'

“And then, Champions League-wise, we wanted to do well and show that can compete at that level, and I think we did that, so overall, it’s been good.

“Of course, in an ideal world it would have been lovely to celebrate at home and win the league at home, something we haven’t done the past few seasons, but nothing is scripted in football.

“You’ve got to go out there and win games of football and whether we win it at home or away, at the end of the day it’s the league title and that’s what we’re trying to win.”
