Rangers vs Celtic Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish Premiership
by Indran in Football Predictions
It doesn’t get any bigger than the Old Firm Derby in the Scottish Premiership as Rangers plays host to city rivals Celtic at the Ibrox Stadium. There are just three points separating the teams with Celtic on top of the table but a win for Rangers will see them go joint top with Celtic. Rangers have won their last three league matches but two draws before this run has severely dented their title defence. They need three points in this match and anything less could hand the title to Celtic as there are just seven matches left to play. Rangers have lost just twice this season and one of those defeats was in the reverse fixture which they lost 3-0. They are unbeaten at home in the league and have won the last three home matches against Celtic.
Celtic have a slim three point lead and a defeat will see Rangers go equal with them on 76 points although they have a far superior goal difference. The visitors have been on a brilliant league run winning 11 of their last 12 league matches with a draw against Hibernian the only blemish during this period. Celtic are unbeaten in their last 31 domestic matches but will be looking for their first win at Ibrox since September 2019. Celtic lost to Rangers in August which was their first trip to Ibrox and this could be a good omen for them as they have won the league on three of the last four occasions that this has happened.

Our Rangers vs Celtic Prediction
This match is almost like a final for Rangers as anything other than three points could spell the end of their title defence. The situation with Celtic is not as dire with a win being perfect but a draw will also suit them well. Rangers will be banking on their recent home record against Celtic and they will be more desperate for the win in this match. We are backing Rangers to win this match with under 2.5 goals scored.
