Prediction: 3-1
Hearts
After recording a come-from-behind win over ten-man St. Mirren (5-1) at the weekend, Celtic will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Hearts in a postponed fixture. The Hoops are eager to cement top position in the standings, and they are likely to stick to their attacking style of play. Since Ange Postecoglou has a full squad to choose from, home win should definitely be considered.
The Jambos, on the other hand, did well to beat St Johnstone 3-0 in front of home fans, but given Celtic’s 100% home record (13-0-0) in the 2022/2023 season, anything but a routine home win would be a big surprise. As for the away team, Wednesday’s clash comes too early for Liam Boyce and Benin Baningime, with first-choice goalkeeper Craig Gordon missing out as well. Both Haring and Stephen Humphrys are rated doubtful for the midweek clash.
