Dundee

DWDWDL

Dundee will be wanting a better result here after a 1-0 Premiership defeat in their last game at the hands of Hearts.

In that match, Dundee had 43% possession and 8 shots at goal with 1 on target. Hearts had 15 shots at goal with 6 on target. Oisin McEntee (77') was the scorer for Hearts.

At least three goals per match were recorded in 5 of the last 6 fixtures where Dundee have participated. Opposition teams scored 11 of them in this period while Dundee bagged a total of 12. That aside, we must now wait to see whether that trend might continue on in this next game.

Coming into this clash, Dundee are unbeaten in their previous 4 home league matches.

Celtic

After a losing effort in their last game against Dundee United in Premiership action, Celtic will be aiming to make amends here.

Martin O'Neill's Celtic have managed to stick the ball in the net 8 times in the course of their most recent six matches. The number of goals that they have conceded during those same clashes adds up to 6.

Ahead of this meeting, Celtic have not beaten Dundee when they have played them away from home in the previous 2 league matches.

👥 Head to head

An examination of their most recent head to head meetings dating back to 30/10/2024 tells us that Dundee have won 1 of these & Celtic 4, with the number of draws being 1.

A sum of 20 goals were yielded between them throughout the course of those matches, with 6 from The Dark Blues and 14 for The Bhoys. That’s an average goals per game figure of 3.33.

📋 Team News: Dundee

It seems likely that The Dark Blues could employ a 4-1-4-1 system for this one, utilising Jon McCracken, Bradley Halliday, Ryan Astley, Luke Graham, Drey Wright, Ethan Hamilton, Cameron Congreve, Finlay Robertson, Yan Dhanda, Tony Yogane and Simon Murray.

ℹ️ Team News: Celtic

We are inclined to think that The Bhoys seem likely to play in a 4-3-3 lineup, giving starts to Viljami Sinisalo, Colby Donovan, Benjamin Arthur, Liam Scales, Kieran Tierney, Benjamin Nygren, Reo Hatate, Callum McGregor, Hyun-jun Yang, Kelechi Iheanacho and Daizen Maeda.

⚡ Prediction

Looking at these two teams, we feel that Celtic are likely to have the majority of the possession and should turn some of their chances into goals.

In contrast, Dundee may well find it hard to find success in front of goal but we do fancy them scoring as well.

We’re therefore anticipating a decent 1-3 margin for Celtic when all’s said and done.
