Sunday’s lunchtime kickoff in the Scottish Premiership takes us to the Pittodrie Stadium, where Aberdeen will be taking on Celtic. The Dons are bottom of the table, while the Hoops are third in the standings after matchday one. Let’s get into the match prediction.
The 2024-25 league season was a tale of two halves for Aberdeen. It began with the team losing only one match up to December, but ended with them losing 10 of their final 19 games in 2025 (W5 D4 L10).
The Dons lost their final four matches last term and began this season with a 2-0 defeat to Hearts on the road last week. That result marked the fourth league game in a row they conceded two or more goals.
The hosts had a record of 10 wins, four draws and five defeats at home last season, but they have not beaten this opponent at this venue since 2016.
Meanwhile, Celtic will be out for revenge here, as it was this opponent that denied them a domestic treble last season. They lost to Aberdeen 4-3 on penalties in the Scottish Cup.
Nevertheless, the Bhoys went on to win their fourth consecutive league title last term and made a winning start to their title defence, beating St Mirren 1-0 at home last weekend.
The Celts are now unbeaten in their last seven top-flight games and maintained the best away record in the league last season (W13 D3 L3).

Our Aberdeen vs Celtic Prediction
It’s a tough start to the season for Aberdeen, having to follow a road game against Hearts with their first home game against the champs. Notably, the Dons' final home game last season was also against the Hoops, and they lost the fixture 5-1.
The Celts were nowhere near their best in their season opener last week, but it would have helped them shake off some rust. Brendon Rodgers will be asking for bigger efforts from his side with each game as the European season edges closer. Our Aberdeen vs Celtic prediction is Celtic wins & over 2.5.
