Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Celtic
Match Time & Date:
21/12/2022
20:45
Prediction: 3-0
Livingston
Celtic Park will host a postponed Premiership game between Celtic and Livingston. The Hoops aim to cement top position in the standings, and they must be brimming with confidence following a hard-fought 1-0 win over Aberdeen. Ange Postecoglou’s men had 33 goal attempts at the weekend, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Since the Australian boss can count on key players for the midweek clash, home win should be considered.
Both McCarthy and Welsh should miss out with injuries. The Lions, on the other hand, aim to stay in top six, but given Celtic’s brilliant winning run in the Scottish top flight, anything but a routine home win would be a major surprise. In their last meeting in the Premier League Celtic outplayed Livingston 3-0, and we predict that history is going to repeat itself. Defender Jamie Brandon remains in Livingston’s recovery room.
