Hibernian vs Celtic Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish Premiership

Prediction published on 26/12/2022, 07:11 by Steve Ashfield | Modified on 26/12/2022 at 08:11 in Scottish Premiership Predictions

Seventh placed Hibernians face a tough task as they host Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic. Hibs are a massive 28 points behind their opponents but still have hopes of European football next season. They are only two points behind Aberdeen who are in third place. Looking in the other direction, they are a comfortable eight points above the relegation play-off position. Hibs have had an exciting start to the resumption of the Scottish Premiership season. They led twice at second placed Rangers but ended up losing 3-2. That was followed by a comprehensive 4-0 home win over Livingston All their goals came between the 33rd and 50th minutes. The win was the fifth that they have had in nine home Scottish Premiership league games this season. Only two have been lost but they've come in their last four matches with St Johnstone and Ross County beating them. Not many teams in the Scottish Premiership have a good home record against Celtic. Hibs are an exception with two wins, six draws and a loss in 2021 to the champions. They have failed to win their last six home games against Celtic.

This is the lull before the storm for Celtic. The match after this trip to Hibs sees them travel to Ibrox Park on January 2 to face second-placed Rangers. Celtic are currently nine points clear at the top after winning 17 of their 18 league games this season. Their only loss was away at St Mirren in September. Since that loss, Celtic have won 11 league games in a row and that includes a 6-1 hammering of Hibs at home in October. Since the Scottish Premiership season resumed, the league leaders have won at Aberdeen and had home wins over Livingston and St Johnstone. Eight out of nine away league games have been won with 29 goals scored (13 more than any other side in the table) and only eight goals conceded. Back Celtic to get another win here.

Our Hibernian vs Celtic Prediction

Hibs don't have an appalling home record against Celtic as many other teams in this league do. There aren't many recent wins though and they take on Celtic at a time when the league leaders just keep on winning. It's just a shame they can't do the same in European competition. Celtic lead the table by nine points and have an incredible away record. Our Hibernians v Celtic prediction is an away win.

Celtic wins the match
