Dundee United coach Darren Jackson relishing Celtic challenge

Dundee United coach Darren Jackson has declared that he is relishing this weekend's Scottish Premiership clash with league leaders Celtic.

The Terrors crashed to a 2-0 defeat against Aberdeen last weekend, but the former striker is adamant that his team can bounce back against the champions.

"We're looking to get back on track. It's a good game," PA quotes him as saying.

"After losing like we did against Aberdeen, people will be saying we've got Celtic in the next outing and maybe thinking that's a bad thing. But it's a great game. There's going to be another full house at Tannadice."

He added: "This is a massive game to look forward to and we want to go and show that we can compete against Celtic and show that we are a good side."

Celtic start the weekend as league leaders, with United seven points behind them.
