Celtic v Hibernian Betting Tips and Preview

27 September, 15:00 – Scottish Premiership
Venue: Celtic Park, Glasgow


Celtic v Hibernian Match Preview

Celtic find themselves exactly where they want to be – top of the Scottish Premiership. Brendan Rodgers’ side have made a strong start, winning four and drawing one of their opening five league matches. The Hoops are unbeaten in all 10 competitive fixtures this season and victories over St Mirren, Aberdeen, Livingston and Kilmarnock show they’re once again a formidable force at Celtic Park.

Visitors Hibernian have also avoided defeat in the Premiership so far, but their campaign has been defined by stalemates. David Gray’s men have drawn four of their opening five matches, with shared points against Kilmarnock, St Mirren, Dundee United and Falkirk. Their only win came in a 2-1 victory at Dundee, but importantly, both teams have scored in all five of their games – highlighting a mix of attacking threat and defensive vulnerability.

This clash between unbeaten sides should be intriguing, with Celtic expected to dominate but Hibs likely to pose enough problems to get on the scoresheet.

Celtic v Hibernian Prediction

Celtic’s firepower and home advantage make them clear favourites, but Hibernian’s knack of finding the net means the visitors could still trouble the scoreboard. With both sides unbeaten, the Both Teams To Score market looks the most appealing angle.
