With only five Premier League wins at Celtic Park, Dunfermline are always up against it at Parkhead but they have won twice in the last six visits. The Pars last win at Celtic Park was in November 2005 when a Greg Ross goal secured the Pars first away win of the 2005-06 season`s SPL campaign. The 1-0 win inflicted the first SPL defeat for Celtic and this followed a 2-1 Pars win in Glasgow back in May 2004.
