Celtic vs Rangers Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish Premiership
by Daniel Ngulu | in Football Predictions
The Old Firm derby is here and Celtic will be playing host to Rangers, with top spot at stake. Celtic are second in the standings with 54 points, two behind league leaders Rangers. Heading into this game, Celtic have five straight wins and are unbeaten in 13 matches, with 12 wins in there. The only time they didn’t win in the last 13 matches, was a draw with St. Mirren and their only loss in 23 matches was against Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League. They have only four clean sheets in the last 10 matches though, and both teams have scored in the remaining six matches. Celtic have scored two or more goals in four of their last five matches and in the Premiership, they are unbeaten in the last 17 matches, winning 14. In their last game, Celtic beat Dundee United 1-0 and will be hoping to avenge their 1-0 loss to Rangers in their earlier meeting this season.
Rangers, just like Celtic, have a 13-game unbeaten run and will be hoping for better defending than in their last game, against Ross County, which ended 3-3. It was their second draw in five matches and the manner in which they drew will really irk them, having come from down, fought hard only to concede in stoppage time. On a more positive side, they do have three clean sheets in the last five matches and have scored two or more goals in six of their last 10 matches. seven of their last 10 matches have ended in under 2.5 goals and they have seven clean sheets in that run of 10 games. Away from home in the league, both sides have scored in Rangers’ matches and they are coming from two straight away draws in the league. A run of seven unbeaten matches against Celtic with six wins in it will give Rangers great confidence.

Our Celtic vs Rangers Prediction
Both these teams have been doing well in their recent matches and going to this game we expected a serious battle for the bragging rights. The fact that top spot is also at stake is a reason for us to expect a big fight. Rangers have dominated this game in recent meetings but it is tough picking out a clear favorite here. One thing though is that both have good scoring runs and we will back them both to score.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
