Celtic will hope to kickstart their Scottish Premiership defence with a win when they welcome Dundee FC to Celtic Park on Monday for a matchday one fixture. This match between the ‘Hoops’ and the ‘Dark Blues’ is unlikely to see too many goals flowing, so our prediction is for less than 3.5 goals to be scored.

The hosts had a dramatic finish to last season, winning their fifth consecutive title. Dundee finished 8th with 42 points and finished four points above the relegation playoff spot, thus securing their Premiership status for a fourth year in a row.

The ‘Hoops’ qualified automatically for the Scottish League Cup knockouts, so they have yet to play a competitive game this season. They had a winless run in their four friendlies (D3, L1), culminating in a 2-2 draw.

Celtic finished with seven consecutive league wins last season, including five at home, so they will hope to get going in this campaign immediately.

Dundee defeated Clyde 4-0 in their latest League Cup game to finish with three wins out of four in that competition (L1). Their lone defeat came via penalties against Ross County, after finishing level during regular time.

The ‘Dark Blues’ ended last season with a run of three wins out of four (L1), which gives them confidence for competing on this difficult trip.

Our Celtic vs Dundee FC Prediction

After a dramatic victory last season, Celtic will hope to start this campaign on a high. They had an underwhelming preparation in the friendlies, drawing three and losing one – while scoring just five goals in total. This is a far cry from how they ended last season – with a flurry of high-scoring victories. Dundee had already played four competitive games this season, but that’s unlikely to aid their hopes of an upset win.

A slow start could be on the cards, which is why our Celtic vs Dundee FC prediction is less than 3.5 goals.
