The only player to score from Kilmarnock was Daniel Armstrong (29'). Reo Hatate (9', 24'), Daizen Maeda (11'), Cameron Carter-Vickers (21') and Anthony Ralston (93') scored for Celtic.
It has not been often in recent games that Kilmarnock have shown defensive steel. It will be a concern for them that Kilmarnock have failed to prevent opponents from scoring in 5 of their previous 6 matches, shipping 16 goals during that time.
