Celtic will look to build on their emphatic 6-2 Scottish Cup win over St. Mirren as they continue their push to keep Premiership title hopes alive. As Celtic want this win more than Falkirk, our prediction leans toward a 3-1 home win. The Hoops' recent form is strong at 2.00 points per game, and they are particularly dominant at home with a 75% win rate and 2.75 goals scored per match. Celtic games at home average a huge 4.00 total goals, highlighting their attacking power, while their xG (1.63) supports consistent chance creation. Defensively they concede 1.10 per game overall, but they remain in control in most home fixtures.
Falkirk, on the other hand, travel to Glasgow with little left to play for after missing out on European spots, posting a decent 1.40 points per game. John McGlynn's men average 1.80 goals scored but also concede 1.70, leading to high-scoring matches (3.50 total goals per game). Away from home they are more balanced (1.25 PPG, 1.00 scored and conceded), but they still lack consistency. Their xG (1.32) and xGA (1.42) underline an open style, though they face a major step up in quality here.
Given Celtic's dominant H2H record and strong home form, we are tempted to bet on Home Win, alongside Celtic Over 1.5 goals Over 2.5 goals total (both teams involved in high-scoring matches).
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Saturday 25 April 2026 at 17:30.
