Pressure is on Celtic - Pressley
With Celtic still hurting from last Sunday's injury-time defeat at Ibrox, which extended Rangers' lead at the top of the Scottish Premier League into double figures, the Hoops travel to Falkirk on Sunday knowing anything less than a victory is unacceptable.[LNB]However, Celtic have dropped four points against bottom club Falkirk this season and Pressley has challenged his side to add a victory to their two draws.[LNB]The former Scotland defender knows all about the pressures of playing for the Old Firm, having been one of the few men to represent both sides.[LNB]But he has urged his own players to concentrate on their game plan and not fear Celtic's response.[LNB]"The pressure is very much on Celtic," Pressley said. "They are on the back of a disappointing result against Rangers and their supporters will demand the correct reaction.[LNB]"Everyone outside our own camp will be expecting a Celtic win but we're looking forward to the challenge.[LNB]"On two occasions this season we have played against them and taken points and we're looking to go one stage further.[LNB]"We'll work towards our game plan and hopefully we can put it into practice.[LNB]"Our sole concentration will be on our own preparation and how we go about the game. Our focus is on winning the game and not anything else."[LNB]Pressley was encouraged by some aspects of his team's performance last weekend, despite their 3-0 defeat by Dundee United.[LNB]And he has ample cause for optimism given his only home match in charge so far was when Falkirk recovered from the loss of an early goal to beat Aberdeen 3-1.[LNB]That was only Falkirk's second SPL win at home this season and Pressley is desperate to build on that record.[LNB]"That's been one aspect that has been disappointing this season, our home form," he said.[LNB]"We want to put that right and make the Falkirk Stadium somewhere where teams don't enjoy coming to play. We can only do that by winning games.[LNB]"We had a good positive result against Aberdeen and if we can follow that up with another positive result we can get some momentum."[LNB][LNB] Celtic 4/11, Draw 10/3, Falkirk 7/1
