Hibernian v Celtic Preview

Hibernian v Celtic Tips, Predictions and Bet Builder

03 May – 12:00 | Scottish Premiership | Easter Road


Hibernian v Celtic Preview

Hibernian FC are still mathematically in the race for European qualification as the Premiership season enters its final stretch.

David Gray’s side sit fifth with 51 points and trail fourth-placed Motherwell by six points. However, back-to-back defeats — including a painful 2-1 derby loss to Hearts — have dented their momentum at a crucial stage.

Hibs did beat Celtic 2-1 in their most recent meeting thanks to a dramatic late winner, but that victory is their only success in the last five head-to-head clashes.

Meanwhile, Celtic FC remain firmly in the title race. The Bhoys are just three points off leaders Hearts with four games remaining and arrive in strong form after winning their last four matches in all competitions.

Martin O’Neill’s men have been prolific going forward, including a 6-2 FA Cup semi-final victory over St Mirren. However, their away form has shown some vulnerability, with five defeats in 17 league road games this season.

With Hibs chasing Europe and Celtic chasing the title, this fixture has major implications at both ends of the table.
