Dundee FC
- Dundee FC are eighth in the standings on 32 points from 31 and are on a run of two wins, two draws, and one defeat in their last five.
- They’re unbeaten in two home games against Celtic FC but Sunday’s hosts may struggle to beat the Hoops, who need to keep their title ambitions alive.
Celtic FC
- Celtic FC have won three, drawn one, and lost one of their last five games.
- Celtic FC sit third in the table on 61 points from 31 games in Premiership 2025-2026.
- They beat Motherwell 3-1 at home but lost 2-0 away at Dundee United FC in their previous two Premiership games.
- Martin O’Neill has made tactical tweaks since taking over at the Celtic Park helm in May 2026, his team now favouring a more structured possession game with positional rotations, one/two touch passing and wide overloads.
Key Players
- The Densmen are a physical side that like to win aerial duels and play off second balls, with Simon Murray (5 goals in 26 Premiership 2025/2026 appearances) leading the line and Emile Acquah alongside him in a two-striker system.
- Benjamin Nygren (15 goals in 31 appearances) is Celtic FC’s main goal threat, while Matt O’Riley has been their main man in midfield, creating chances with his vision and making runs into the box to score.
Betting Insights
- The away team should be favourites, but 1.46 for Celtic to take the points is short, so we’re going to back a high-scoring game with both teams on the scoresheet instead.
- Dundee FC has scored 23 goals in 15 home matches and Celtic FC has conceded 22 goals in 16 away games, so both teams to score and over 2.5 goals look a good way to go here, with odds of 1.57 and 1.48, respectively.
Prediction
We’re going to back a high-scoring game with both teams on the scoresheet instead.
