Celtic vs St Johnstone Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish Premiership
by Steve Ashfield in Football Predictions
A home win for second placed Celtic over ninth placed St Johnstone can take them top of the Scottish Premiership. The Bhoys trail leaders Rangers by two points but their rivals don’t play until a day after this match. Celtic lost their last league game but so did Rangers so it wasn’t a total disaster. That was only their third league loss of the season. Since that defeat they’ve beaten Livingston 4-2 in the Scottish Cup. The Hoops have won ten of their 14 home league games this season. Four of the last five have been won since a loss to Hearts in mid-December. That’s the only home league loss they’ve suffered in the last 58 matches.
Earlier this season St Johnstone drew 0-0 at Celtic but lost to them 3-1 at home in December. They have only won six of their 29 games in the Scottish Premiership this season and are 40 points behind their opponents. The Saints are only five points above the relegation play-off position but 11 above the automatic place that would send them down. Just two away league games have been won this season with eight lost. Scoring on the road is a big problem with just six in total. They are unbeaten in their last two league fixtures but unlikely to make it three. St Johnstone won 2-0 at struggling Aberdeen and in their most recent game drew 1-1 at home with Livingston needing an 87th minute goal to rescue a point. We tip Celtic to win this match and return to the top of the table.
