Hearts - Celtic predictions

The most probable outcome of this match is Hearts getting completely overwhelmed. They are underdogs by a considerable margin, and it’s not likely even the most optimistic of their fans are expecting them to pull off a victory.

Priced at very short odds of 1.40, and away win seems the most logical outcome here. Hearts may be hoping to pull off a draw or surprise win, but both of these are longshots.

When we talk about Hearts’s previous Premiership result, it’s fair to say hosts can be pretty happy to have avoided a heavier defeat. They were the 8.50 underdogs last time out and a narrow Rangers HT/FT loss is not something to scoff at.

While the last time we saw Celtic they went home after a convincing 0:2 away win at Kilmarnock, they shouldn’t get too overconfident. They were the hard favourites after all, and Celtic might yet have a few tricks up their sleeve.

Hearts’s form is fairly strong when it comes to offense – they netted 6 goals in the last three away games.

This match might present a rare opportunity to go for an Over 4.5 Goals bet. Celtic have netted 7 goals in each of their previous 3 games – which is quite a track record.

Celtic decisively won their previous engagement with Hearts. They secured a multiple-goal difference in an earlier round of the Premiership, and most bookies are expecting a repeat of that success.

We can look forward to an exciting game as both teams have their full lineups available, thanks to no suspensions or injuries.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.54, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
