Liam Scales: We're determined to get back to winning ways against Motherwell

Celtic are preparing for their third home game in a row when they play host to Motherwell this Sunday (KO: 3pm).

And the Hoops are determined to return to winning ways following a goal-less draw against Hibernian last weekend and a 2-0 defeat to SC Braga in the Europa League.

Speaking to Celtic TV ahead of the game against Motherwell, Liam Scales said: “It’s good to have games every couple of days because, good or bad, you can’t dwell on the previous game, you always have to be thinking about the next one.

“Obviously, we want to put that right in our next European game and we need to be better and pick up points, but right now we are moving on to the Motherwell game and it is sort of a blessing to have it so close.

'It’s really important to go into the international break off the back of a win. Motherwell are a different side this season to what they have been.'

“They’re playing a lot more football on the ground so it’ll be interesting to see, but for us, we’ve just got to think about hitting our performance levels and winning the game.

“From what we’ve watched of them so far this season, they’re playing really good football which it’s good to see, but we just need to be ready for that different challenge to what we usually face against a typical Motherwell side.

“We just want points on the board and, ideally, we want to keep a clean sheet and score a few goals, but we know it’s never that simple so the main objective is to get the win.”
