Celtic and Aberdeen meet each other in the first semi-final of the Scottish League Cup at Hampden Park in Glasgow on Saturday. The winner of this tie will face off against either Motherwell or Rangers in the final. Let's get into the prediction for this match between the Bhoys and the Dons!
This game should see a lot of fireworks as the two teams arrive here fresh from the 2-2 draw they played out against each other on 19 October at the same venue. Celtic stand on top of the Scottish Premiership league table at the moment with 28 points to their name, and have been unbeaten in their last five matches.
Manager Brendan Rodgers is known for his particularly ebullient brand of football, and this has been clear by the way Celtic have approached their games this season. Most recently, they secured a 2-0 home win over Dundee in a one-sided Premiership encounter.
Aberdeen, on the other hand, are ranked just one spot below Celtic in the league table. In the League Cup too, they have performed reasonably well so far, and will not expect anything other than a win against their storied opponents over the weekend.
A narrow yet significant 1-0 league win over Dundee United in their previous match is bound to give Aberdeen reason to believe in themselves all the more ahead of this big semi-final.

Our Celtic vs Aberdeen Prediction
Celtic are thorough favourites to win this game, and being at home, one can favourably say that they will beat their opponents Aberdeen. They've scored 43 goals in 15 competitive matches this season, and this is bound to give their attackers a lot of confidence.
Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel, signed from Anderlecht in Belgium, has been instrumental in drumming up confidence of his defenders from between the goalposts. Despite being known for keeping their shape and passing the ball into dangerous areas, Aberdeen might end up falling short on Saturday. Our Celtic vs Aberdeen prediction: Celtic to win and over 2.5 goals.
