Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Celtic will be looking to build on a 2-0 win over Hamilton when they host St. Mirren at their Celtic Park on Matchday 13. The Hoops did well to put an end to their four-game winless run in the Premiership, with the team cementing second position in the standings. Celtic have slim chances of defending their trophy, but their pride will be at stake in the remainder of the season.
Fit-again attacker Odsonne Edouard, who found the net in the victory over Hamilton, will be the man to watch in the home team. The Saints, on the other hand, aim to build on a thrilling 5-1 win over Dundee United. St. Mirren did well to put an end to their four-game winless run in the Scottish top flight, but Celtic are likely to pose a much bigger threat for the visitors than their previous rivals.
