Celtic will win the league this weekend if they avoid losing to Aberdeen at Pittodrie on Saturday.

Neil Lennon's side go into their Premiership clash against the Dons in the knowledge that a point will clinch their eighth successive title.

Celtic defender Kieran Tierney will have an operation on a double hernia which will almost certainly keep him out of Scotland's European Championship qualifying double-header in June.

• McGregor: Lennon has been brilliant

There were fears the left-back would miss the rest of the season after being left out following the 3-0 William Hill Scottish Cup semi-final win over Aberdeen last month, but he is in contention for Sunday's game.

"He has had advice from the specialist and we are just going to manage him through until the end of the season hopefully," said interim boss Lennon, who confirmed the club had triggered a 12-month extension clause on winger Scott Sinclair's contract.

"I think it will be very difficult for him to go with Scotland.

"We have sort of managed him on a daily basis. He is going to require surgery and the sooner the season finishes and he gets surgery, the better it will be for him going forward and the timescale is probably three to four weeks.

"That is the idea. It is a double hernia, so that needs fixing."

Lennon, who also revealed striker Leigh Griffiths is back training after being out since December with personal problems, believes the retention of Sinclair is significant.

He added: "Scott will be here for another year. He has been a good player since he walked in the door.

"He has made a big contribution in the goals column and that football intelligence and experience is always important to have around.

"There is a familiarity there for Scott going into the Champions League qualifiers next season, and he is one that we don't have to replace."
