Match Time & Date:

10:00 AM
Prediction: 1-0
Aberdeen
Celtic will be looking to retain top position in the Scotland Premier League standings when they host Aberdeen at their Celtic Park on Matchday 19. Over the years the Hoops have established themselves at the dominant force in the Premiership, but winning the 2019/2020 trophy is easier said than done as Steven Gerrard is doing an amazing job with Rangers.
Neil Lennon’s charges aim to keep their 100% record at home ground intact, and we are positive that they will stick to their attacking style of play against Aberdeen. The Dons are a real force to be reckoned with at home as well, but we do not believe that Derek McInnes’ troops are capable of spoiling Celtic’s party in Glasgow as they were outplayed by Hibernian (0-3) in their last away game in the national championship. You should bear in mind that Celtic crushed Aberdeen 4-0 in their last meeting in the Premiership.

The Belgian footballer, who is a cousin of Manchester United attacker Romelu Lukaku, has yet to earn a cap for the national team.
