With Martin O'Neill now in temporary charge, Celtic will be hoping to close the gap on leaders Hearts against Kilmarnock this weekend. Our prediction for the Scottish Premiership match between the Hoops and Killie is outlined below where we will look for some value in what looks likely to be an easy home win for Celtic.
Currently, Celtic lie second in the table, nine points behind Hearts, but five ahead of Hibs, Rangers and Falkirk. They have 20 points from their ten games and have a game in hand on Hearts. Kilmarnock have hit a miserable run of recent league form, with four defeats in four. They have amassed ten points and sit tenth in the table, one point ahead of Dundee.
Celtic's change of manager has seen Brendan Rodgers leave in acrimonious fashion with Martin O'Neill stepping in as a temporary solution. Celtic won 4-0 against Falkirk last time in the league and beat Rangers 3-1 after extra time in last weekend's Premier Cup semi final. But in midweek, they went down to a 3-1 defeat away to Midtjylland.
Kilmarnock's recent form is worrying. A 3-0 home defeat to Hearts was followed by a 3-1 away loss to Rangers. Then Killie lost 1-0 at home to Aberdeen and last time out they were beaten 3-1 by Falkirk.In th
