Hibernian (home)
- Hibs are winless in 5 home games across all current competitions (D1, L4), conceding 9 goals at Easter Road.
- The most recent of those was a 1-1 draw at home to Aberdeen and after a pair of back-to-back losses away to Dundee United and at home to Falkirk, Hibs are not in the best form to take on the leaders of the Premiership 2026/2027.
Celtic (away)
- Celtic come into this game as 1.67 favorites to win, with Hibernian available at 4.65 and the draw at 3.95.
- The Bhoys have won all 4 of their away games in the 2026/2027, conceding only 2 goals, a brilliant record and testament to Martin O'Neill's ability to get his side to press in unison and flood forward in numbers on the counterattack.
- Celtic will be looking to get back to winning ways in the domestic arena after a 4-1 defeat at Benfica in the Europa League last time out, but before that they had responded to the defeat in Portugal by thumping Hearts 7-1 at Celtic Park before seeing off Motherwell 2-0 on the road in the league.
Head-to-Head
- Celtic have won 3 of the last 5 meetings including their 2-1 away victory in Premiership - Championship Round 2026.
- Celtic have won all four away games in the Premiership 2026/2027 and conceded just 2 goals on their travels.
Key Players
- Hibs have one key goal threat in Martin Boyle, who has 3 goals in 6 Premiership 2026/2027 games, but Celtic have a number of candidates for goals on Sunday.
- Benjamin Nygren leads the way with 3 goals in 7 games, but Camilo Duran has been just as sharp of late, scoring 2 of the Bhoys' 3 goals across their last 5 games in all current competitions.
