Dundee Utd v Celtic Match Preview

Dundee Utd v Celtic Bet Builder, Tips and Predictions – Scottish Premiership

17 Dec 20:00 – Scottish Premiership
Venue: Tannadice Park


Dundee Utd v Celtic Preview

Dundee United look set for a difficult night at the office on Wednesday in the Scottish Premiership, despite their visitors arriving on a run of three straight defeats. The Tangerines themselves are without a victory in seven league matches, picking up four draws but also slipping to defeats against Motherwell, Falkirk and St Mirren during that period.

Jim Goodwin’s side have at least shown some attacking promise at home, scoring 10 goals in eight matches at Tannadice Park, but defensive issues continue to cost them valuable points.

Celtic, meanwhile, have endured a rough spell since the departure of interim boss Martin O’Neill, losing their last three matches in all competitions. Defeats to Hearts (2-1), Roma (3-0) and most recently a damaging 3-1 loss to St Mirren in the League Cup final have knocked confidence within the camp.

However, this fixture represents a major opportunity for the Glasgow giants to reset and regain momentum. With the pace and direct running of Daizen Maeda likely to cause Dundee United serious problems, the visitors are strong favourites to return to winning ways.

Dundee United Team News

Dundee United remain without Dario Naamo, Isaac Pappoe, Panutche Camara and Yevhenii Kucherenko due to injury.

Conclusion

Celtic are wounded but remain significantly stronger than Dundee United, and this match arrives at exactly the right time for them to break their losing streak. Dundee United have shown enough attacking threat at home to find the net, but their defensive fragility could play directly into Celtic’s hands.

Expect goals — and expect Celtic to outgun their hosts.
