Celtic FC and Dundee United will meet for the third time this season on matchday 26 in the Scottish Premiership. The match between first-placed Celtic and third-placed Dundee United will be played at Celtic Park. Here's our match prediction.
Daizen Maeda's goal in the 79th minute provided little solace in a 2-1 home defeat against Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League first-leg knockout playoffs. A return leg will see Celtic tasked with overturning a one-goal deficit if they are to keep their European dreams alive.
A return to league action sees the Bhoys high in spirits. They have won 21 of their 25 games this season and are currently on a two-match winning streak. This includes their biggest win - a 6-0 home thrashing of Dundee FC.
Brendan Rodgers' men have been a force to be reckoned with at home. They have won eight consecutive matches and outscored their opponents 29-0.
Dundee United have been plagued by inconsistency and come into this match boasting a three-match losing streak.
In their recent league outing, they were punished by a Marley Watkins goal in the 72nd minute, losing 1-0 on the road to Kilmarnock. This marked their second consecutive defeat and fourth loss in five league games.
Away from home, the Terrors have won three of their last five matches while losing two. One of those defeats came against Celtic FC, losing 2-0.
