Aberdeen welcome Celtic to Pittodrie hoping to return to winning ways after a narrow 1-0 defeat to league leaders Hearts. However, our prediction points toward a 2-1 away win as Celtic aim to keep their Premiership title hopes alive. The Dons sit 8th but at least enter this clash with no fresh injury concerns. Their home form (1.80 points per game) is far stronger than their away record, and they average 2.20 goals scored per home match. However, defensive frailties remain—Aberdeen concede 1.40 goals per home outing and have kept just 40% clean sheets at Pittodrie.
Celtic, meanwhile, head into the match full of belief after their dramatic 2-2 comeback in the Old Firm derby against Rangers, and with their title hopes still alive, the pressure remains high. The Hoops have been very consistent away from home, averaging 2.00 points per game and scoring exactly 2.00 goals in each of their last four away fixtures. Their expected goals numbers (xG 1.53 away) continue to reflect a side that creates regularly, although their defence has shown vulnerability with 1.89 xGA away.
Celtic dominate this H2H historically (45 wins in 56), and with Aberdeen failing to score in 60% of their recent matches overall, the visitors enter as strong favourites. Therefore, Away Win is our main betting tip for this Premiership matchup, alongside Over 2.5 goals and Celtic Over 1.5 (Both teams’ matches average above 2.5 goals; Celtic’s games sit at 3.60 overall).
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Wednesday 4 March 2026 at 20:00.
