Aberdeen host Celtic in an eagerly-awaited Scottish Premiership clash, with 1-2 our predicted outcome due to the Hoop's fine form. The Dons are looking to recover from a 3-0 defeat to Kilmarnock, but they will be without key midfielder Graeme Shinnie, who is suspended. Aberdeen’s form is patchy, earning just 0.70 points per game, and their away record is abysmal, with zero wins in five road matches, scoring only 0.17 goals per game on the road. At home, they are slightly better, netting 2 goals per game and keeping 25% clean sheets.
Celtic, on the other hand, are high on confidence, with the team sitting in second place six points behind Hearts. The Hoops have collected 2 points per game overall with an impressive home record, scoring 4 goals per match at Celtic Park, conceding 1.25, and keeping clean sheets in 50% of home fixtures. H2H stats heavily favor Martin O'Neill's men, who have won 45 of the last 56 meetings. There are no fresh injury worries in the visiting team, which definitely supports our betting angle.
Given Celtic's dominant H2H and better form, Away Win is our main betting tip for this Premiership matchup. Additionally, Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals markets seem appealing as both team's recent games are high-scoring.
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Wednesday 4 February 2026 at 20:00.
