Celtic vs Dundee Utd Prediction & Betting tips
Celtic Glasgow is already 16 points behind leaders Glasgow Rangers in the Scottish Premiership. However, the Hoops have three games less in the account. If the maximum nine points jump out, the lead of the Gers could shrink to seven points. Already next Saturday at the Old Firm, Celtic has the chance to reduce the theoretical four points.
In view of this important derby, there is no weakness to show against Dundee during the week. According to the betting base odds comparison at Celtic Glasgow against Dundee United, the odds are very clearly in the direction of the Celts.
At home, Neil Lennon’s team scored 19 of a possible 24 points and, especially defensively, with only six goals conceded, did not burn too much. The fact that the Tangerines are the weakest away offensive of the Premiership in the Celtic Park makes a surprise all the more unlikely.
Also because we believe that the Celts want to send a clear signal to their city rivals today, we at Celtic Glasgow against Dundee United give the tip on the Hoops home win with an Asian handicap of -2.5. They also won their last four home games against the Tangerines by at least three goals.
Celtic Glasgow :
The Celtic Football Club secured its 51st Scottish Championship in the past season. In a decade in which there was hardly any resistance to the bankruptcy of the Rangers, who had to start again in the fourth division, it was the ninth national championship in a row.
At the time of the end of the season, the hoops had 13 points more than the Gers, who had to be put in their place again this season. But the snapshot at the turn of the year shows that the old rival is back in the running.
Finally, the Rangers are currently leading the Premiership table. The Light Blues were also responsible for the Celts’ only lost league game when they won the Old Firm’s first leg 2-0 in Celtic Park, of all places.
Even if the selection of Neil Lennon from their catch-up games brings the maximum yield, seven points are missing on the city rivals. This week is all the more groundbreaking for the hoops who will compete in the next Old Firm on Saturday in the Ibrox Stadium. Logically only victory counts there.
The Celts definitely bring momentum. The last five competitive games were all won, with Celtic initially saying goodbye to the Europa League with a home win over OSC Lille. In the Premiership, the Lennon squad won their last three league games without conceding a goal and stayed on top.
In time for the groundbreaking week, the form is right, which is why it is now important not to show any weakness against the Tangerines. Of course, the hoops go into the game as the odds favorites.
Dundee United :
Dundee United experienced the strongest period in the club’s history in the 1980s. In 1983 the Tangerines succeeded in winning the first and only Scottish Championship. Four years later they also reached the final of the UEFA Cup, which was narrowly lost to IFK Göteborg.
In the end, however, there was little to see of this former glory. In the summer of 2016, the Terrors were relegated from the Scottish Premiership and were marginalized in the second division for four years.
However, because they were in first place in the table of the Scottish Campionship at the time of the end of the season after applying the quotient rule, the Tangerines returned to the highest league in the country this summer. Under the new coach Micky Mellon, it is now important to re-establish yourself here as quickly as possible.
The snapshot of the table of the Scottish House of Lords shows that the undertaking has so far been a success. The Terrors occupy fifth place in the table and, as things stand, they don’t even have to be relegated to relegation.
It can be stated, however, that the kickers from the Scottish east coast got the majority of their points at home. Away only two of the nine guest appearances in the Premiership could be won. This is primarily due to the weak away offensive. The Tangerines scored only five goals in the distance. No other first division team was tamer away from home.
Against this background, it really makes no sense at Celtic Glasgow against Dundee United to play the tip on the surprising point win of the Terror in Celtic Park. After all, there was seldom anything to get here for Dundee. The Terrors lost their last five guest appearances with a terrifying goal difference of 2:21.
