Motherwell will be desperate to stop the rot when they welcome Celtic to Fir Park in round eight of the Scottish Premiership. The Steelmen suffered a 2-1 defeat to Dundee FC before the international break, extending their losing streak to three matches. Although their home performances have been more encouraging, they have struggled to find consistency, averaging 1.20 goals scored per game on their own turf. There are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Celtic, meanwhile, are determined to retain top spot in the standings after suffering a painful 1-0 defeat to Rangers in the Old Firm derby. The Hoops have otherwise been productive in front of goal, averaging 1.60 goals per game on their recent away trips, and their superior quality should give them confidence heading to Fir Park. Fit-again striker Kasper Høgh is pushing for a starting role, while winger Haissem Hassan could also feature from the outset. Camilo Duran has returned from international duty and is available for selection.
Despite the Old Firm derby disappointment, Celtic look well placed to respond against a Motherwell side in poor form, making Celtic to win, Over 1.5 goals and Celtic Over 1.5 team goals appealing options.
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Sunday 11 October 2026 at 12:00.
