Celtic - Kilmarnock predictions

Most fans are expecting nothing short of a decisive victory for Celtic. Though an upset is not impossible, it’s extremely unlikely that this match will end in anything that’s not a home win.

Considering what they’re up against, Kilmarnock can’t set their ambitions too high in this match. Playing as visitors at odds of 13.19 for an away win, calling them underdogs seems like an understatement.

Celtic won with a single-point lead in their previous showdown against Hibernian . Some fans were expecting more, seeing how Celtic were considered favourites, but it’s hard to argue with 1:2 results in an away game, despite the favourable betting odds.

The previous round of the Premiership saw Kilmarnock win 1:0 in a favourable home matchup against Livingston. That said, the pre-match betting odds for them to win were 6.30, so the fact that the game was a relatively close call is somewhat surprising.

Celtic can boast over 5 goals scored during their past 3 away games. Seeing how playing at home is generally seen as an advantage, we can expect their attackers to perform just as well this Saturday, if not better.

With 7 consecutive appearances with at least one goal to their name, the visiting team can feel confident. Either way, their matches are more likely to confirm the BTTS betting market.

According to the recent head-to-head records, Celtic already has a win over the away team recorded earlier in the season. It was a narrow victory, but a victory nonetheless, justifying the 1.22 odds on a home win.

Both teams will be able to field their strongest lineups this Saturday, with no injuries or suspensions to worry about.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 1.50 if you use the William Hill sportsbook.
