Celtic will look to bounce back on Sunday when they host St. Mirren at Celtic Park in a matchday 22 fixture in the Scottish Premiership. This match between league-leading Hoops and the fifth-placed Saints comes with our prediction of producing over 2.5 goals.
The hosts have 50 points from 19 matches and have an 11-point lead over Rangers, while the visitors have 27 points from 21 matches, trailing the top four by seven points. Celtic were stunned 3-0 away at Rangers on Thursday for their first loss of the league campaign.
Although it’s unlikely to reduce their chances of winning the title, Brendan Rodgers’ side would be hurt by the manner of defeat. Home fans will hope for a response, and thankfully, the Hoops won eight of their nine home league games this season, each time with a clean sheet.
St. Mirren are also coming off a defeat, a 2-0 loss away at Kilmarnock on Thursday. That made it two losses in a row for the Saints, who now have just a three-point lead over the eighth-placed Kilmarnock ahead of this round.
Regardless of that defeat, three wins across the last five away games is a tiny ray of hope for St. Mirren to upset their fancied hosts, who won the last five league matches between these teams.

Our Celtic vs St Mirren Prediction
The defeat at Rangers did little to dent Celtic’s lead at the top of Scottish Premiership standings but would have definitely hurt their pride. The home fans will look for an immediate rebound, and perhaps playing St. Mirren is the best option. The visitors lost their last two matches and their recent five league games against Celtic, which could be the result once again this weekend. It is the goals market that looks lucrative, and our prediction for Celtic vs St. Mirren: over 2.5.
