St. Johnstone - Celtic betting tips and odds

A mere glance at the betting odds for this match should tell you most you need to know. A home win here is almost an impossible outcome, so it’s not very likely we’ll see solid betting opportunities in the 1X2 market.

We are most likely going to see this match being won by Celtic. They have a solid advantage over their opponents – at least according to the betting odds. That said, we’ve definitely seen much bigger surprises in the Premiership but such a scenario is not entirely likely in this fixture.

St. Johnstone faced off against Livingston in the previous round. Most betting predictions favoured Livingston due to the home-field advantage, but the visitors did well to take an early lead in the first half and claw their way towards a hairpin victory (1:2).

Celtic are coming on the back of a decisive 0:4 away win against St. Mirren in their last outing. Still, the odds were stacked in their favour in terms of the matchup, and this game might yet prove more difficult.

St. Johnstone’s track record shows zero concessions over their previous three games. Needless to say, confidence is high among their defending players.

You may want to look at Celtic as good candidates for markets like BTTS bets or Over 5 Goals. They have more than 5 goals on record from their previous 3 games alone.

As far as the head-to-head stats are concerned, Celtic already confirmed their status as favourites. They defeated the away team previously in the season, leaving little doubt as to which squad is in better form.

Fortunately, none of the teams’ players has been injured or suspended recently. With their full lineups at their disposal, we’re in for an exciting match.

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 1.74, which makes this an easy betting prediction to make.
