Celtic vs Motherwell Prediction and Betting Tips 5 October 2025

Celtic will be aiming to recover from the Europa League loss to Braga when they take on Motherwell in the Premiership round 7. The Hoops played out a slim goalless draw with Hibernian at the weekend, meaning that they do not seem to be at their sharpest. Anyhow, we are positive that Brendan Rodgers’ men will go all guns blazing at Motherwell in order to overtake Hearts in top position. Both Jota and Alistair Johnston remain in the recovery room, but Japan international Reo Hatate has overcome his minor injury.

The Well, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-0 win over Aberdeen. Motherwell want to remain undefeated in the 2025/2026 Premiership campaign, but given their negative record at Celtic Park, home win should be considered. The likes of Nicholson, Robinson, Sparrow, and Stuparevic are all expected to miss out with injuries for the visiting team.

This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Sunday 5 October 2025 at 15:00.
