Rangers vs Celtic Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish League Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in Football Predictions
The Scottish League Cup will be up for grabs this weekend with the two most successful teams in Scottish football, Rangers and Celtic fighting it out at Hampden Park on Sunday. The two giants are locked in a Premiership battle where Celtic holds the advantage at the moment. Their league ambitions will be out to the side as the Glasgow giants go for the first piece of silverware this season. They are both on good runs coming into this game; Rangers are on eight straight wins ahead of this meeting and they have scored two or more in nine of their last 10 games. A 16-match unbeaten run will be great for their confidence going into this key game. The only team that stopped Rangers from winning in their last 14 matches was Celtic, as the two drew 2-2 in January. That result is one of the seven in their last 10 games that has produced over 2.5 goals. Each of their last four matches has produced over 2.5 goals; to warm up for this game, Rangers thrashed Livingston 3-0 away from home with James Tavernier scoring twice as he returned to scoring ways before Kemar Roofe sealed the win with a late goal.
Like Rangers, Celtic will also go into this game with nine straight wins; the last time they failed to win a game was the 2-2 draw with Rangers in January. Celtic had to claw back late on to draw the league game. Each of Celtic’s last four matches have produced over 2.5 goals and they have scored two or more goals in each of their last 10 matches. With seven clean sheets in 10 ahead of this game, Celtic will feel like the favorites and the fact that they lead by nine points in the league title race will build their confidence. Celtic are also unbeaten in 17 matches since their 5-1 loss to Real Madrid in November 2022. Coming into this clash, Celtic have scored three or more goals in their last four matches – the most recent a 4-0 win over Aberdeen. Reo Hatate has scored four times in Celtic’s last two matches. They are unbeaten in the last three meetings with Rangers and in their only loss in the last six, Rangers did it in extra time.

Our Rangers vs Celtic Prediction
A huge contest is always expected when Rangers and Celtic face off and it will be even bigger, meeting in the League Cup final. Celtic seem to have a slight advantage over Rangers here, with a better goal ratio as well as the head-to-head. However, in the derby, at times such details don’t matter a lot. One thing we are sure of here is seeing goals. Just like it has been in five of these teams’ last six meetings, we will back this Rangers v Celtic game to produce over 2.5 goals.
