Prediction: 0-2
Celtic
Motherwell and Celtic take on each other at Fir Park on day 25 of the current Premiership campaign. The Hoops are determined to stay in a two-horse title race with Rangers, but this game will be anything but a walk in the park for the capital club. Tom Rogic returns from international duty, while Nir Bitton is back after serving his one-game ban in the Old Firm derby. You should know that Celtic are eyeing their third consecutive win on the road.
The Well, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, and given their four-game winless run in the national championship, home win should not be considered. In their last meeting at the venue Celtic defeated Motherwell 2-0, and we predict that the history is going to repeat itself. Liam Shaw, who limped off with injury in a 1-1 draw with St. Mirren, is unlikely to feature in Sunday’s clash.
Highlighted Player (Liam Kelly):
Born in Newport Pagnell, England Liam Kelly is a right-footed midfielder who plays for Coventry City in the League One. Kelly is a product of Milton Keynes Dons football school, but he did not play for the club at senior level. The English footballer started his senior career at Scottish club Kilmarnock, but after making 100 appearances in the league for the Killie, he moved to England, signing a three-and-a-half-year deal with Bristol City.
The English footballer played for the likes of Oldaham Athletic and Leyton Orient as well before joining Coventry City in the summer of 2017. His main position is central midfielder, but he is capable of playing as both defensive and right midfielder as well.
His preferred foot is right. He made his league debut with Coventry City on August 5, 2017 in a 3-0 win over Notts County, while scoring his first goal for the club in a 3-1 win over Stevenage in April, 2018.
Highlighted Team (Celtic):
The Celtic Football Club boasts a proud over 100-year long history which has made The Bhoys a global brand thanks to their unprecedented social awareness that dates to the very beginnings of this Scottish club. Celtic was founded in 1887 with the purpose of alleviating poverty in the immigrant Irish population in the East End of Glasgow by raising money to help their fellow citizens.
The charity legacy continues to this day with Celtic still preserving their charitable traditions through the Celtic FC Foundation. The Celts play their home matches at Celtic Park in front of 60,000 people. One of the two most successful football clubs in Scotland with 47 Scottish League Championship titles to their name, Celtic have a long-standing fierce rivalry with Rangers, with the clubs known as the Old Firm.
European Cup winners from season 1966-67 and runners-up two years later, Celtic have been regular in European competitions since their first appearance in 1962-63. Their other most standout results have been runners-up in the EUFA Cup in 2003 and Intercontinental Cup in 1967.
