Celtic vs Dundee
📖 The Preview
Celtic are heavy favourites here and the head-to-head record backs that up massively, six wins from eight at home against Dundee. Dundee have been decent recently with some solid results mixed in, so don't expect them to just roll over, and they should nick one which is why we're seeing both teams score. But Celtic's home dominance and that 73% win probability tells you where this is heading. Three goals for the hosts, one consolation for the visitors, and a comfortable 3-1 it is.
