Winger James Forrest is urging Celtic to keep all eyes on Sunday's Scottish Cup quarter-final, despite having ground to make up in the league.
Martin O'Neill's men head in to tomorrow's game against Rangers five points off Hearts at the top of the Premiership table.
But they've already missed out on one piece of silverware this season after losing to St Mirren in the League Cup final back in December.
And Forrest insists Celtic need to have all eyes on this weekend's game.
"I think to be honest, they [league and cup] are separate," the 34-year-old said.
"It's a chance to get to Hampden again and the semi-final and I think that's the focus.
"At this time of the season, you just concentrate on the next game.
"I think the league is on the backburner to next Saturday when we go to Motherwell.
"Everyone in the changing room, the staff and everyone will give everything they've got for Sunday and then whatever happens after that, the league will take care of his itself."
Since making his Celtic debut back in 2010, Forrest has become the club's most decorated player and is still being relied on during games.
Mostly coming off the bench, the Scotland international has scored one goal and set up another so far this season.
"Obviously I'm getting older, but I'm still fit and available and still been playing games and I want to contribute when I can and help the team," he added.
"With the amount of games that we have, playing in Europe, you're in both cups, that is a lot of games and throughout the season you do need to use your full squad.
"The players that start on Sunday might not be the ones that finish the game.
"Whenever I get a chance to play, I want to help the team as much as I can.
"The most important thing when you're maybe not playing as much and when you're kind of in and out of the team, you just need to work hard in training.
"And when you do get a chance, you need to try to stay in the team and still try and play a part of it and hopefully I can do that on Sunday as well."
