Hibernian - Celtic predictions

To call the upcoming match difficult for Hibernian would be a major understatement. They are going up against impossible odds. With a home win priced at 8.93 with major online bookmakers, this is a completely one-sided game.

Celtic seem to be on their way to another easy victory and 3 more points to the tally. Priced at 1.34, the odds favour them heavily, so any outcome other than an away win is not exactly a safe choice.

The hosts are coming on the back of a terrible showing in their previous Premiership home game. They got off on the wrong foot despite initially favourable predictions and recorded an HT/FT loss with a considerable goal difference.

A point from the game they were supposed to have no problems winning will have left Celtic scratching their heads. Following their HT/FT draw against Aberdeen, it’s fair to assume Celtic will be raring to go this Wednesday.

Hibernian have been struggling to keep the ball out of their net lately. For instance, their previous 3 Premiership matches were marked by more than 5 goals conceded in total.

Celtic have been met with a lot of success in previous away games – at least in terms of goal-scoring. They scored 7 in their previous 3 away games, so this might be a good chance to consider an Over 4.5 Goals bet.

Celtic won this matchup last season, leading most bookies to mark them as the favourites this Wednesday. More importantly, it was a very convincing victory, and they likely won’t be satisfied with anything less than a 2-goal lead again.

With no injuries to speak of on the visiting side, the favourites will be heading into this fixture with full force.

An Over 2.5 Goals is a great bet if you like staying on the safe side. The betting value for this market is strong compared even to the 1.50, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
