Head-to-Head

Key Players

• Benjamin Nygren leads the line for Celtic with five Premiership goals in 13 appearances, while Lawrence Shankland, with seven in 13, is Hearts’ talisman.
• The Jambos’ striker has scored twice in his last five appearances and could be the difference if Hearts can edge this contest, as they did last month.

Betting Insights

• They are the clear favourites to win this clash with 1.54 odds, but Hearts, priced at 5.82, are worthy of a small stakes bet here and the draw, priced at 4.05, looks a viable option too.
• Backing Over 2.5 goals at 1.7 looks a good bet, however, given Celtic’s goal-scoring prowess at home and both sides’ ability to score.
