Celtic FC's title defense in the 2025-26 Scottish Premiership begins with a match against lowly St. Mirren this Sunday. The match will be played at Celtic Park. Here's our match prediction.
Celtic FC have been the epitome of dominance in the Scottish Premiership. Last season, they finished at the top of the standings to clinch their fourth successive league title and 55th overall.
The Bhoys have not been involved in competitive action since suffering a rare defeat against Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup final on May 24, losing 4-3 on penalties.
Since then, there has been a massive influx of friendly games. They navigated seven preseason games and won five. The highlighted matches during this period have to be wins over Sporting Lisbon and Newcastle United.
St. Mirren, on the other hand, finished in sixth place in both the regular season and the championship round in the previous Scottish Premiership season.
Unlike their opponents in this upcoming encounter, who were not involved in any competitive games, the Buddies had to navigate four such matches in the Scottish League Cup.
Despite a slow start that saw them drop points in a setback against Arbroath in the opener, they quickly picked themselves up and cooked up three wins in a row. Their most recent match was a 2-1 home win against Ayr, which was enough to see them top Group D.
