Make no mistake, Sunday's Scottish Premiership clash between Hearts and Celtic is already a vital game for both teams. For the Jam Tarts, a win could extend their lead at the top of the table to eight points. For the Hoops, a win would cut Hearts' lead down to just two. This is an intriguing game, so what will our match prediction be?
Both of these teams have been the standout teams in the Scottish Premiership this season. Hearts have flown out the blocks winning seven and drawing one of their eight games to sit atop the table on 22 points. Celtic have won five and drawn two, losing one, of their eight league games to sit second on 17 points, six ahead of Hibs in third.
Current form sees Hearts having won all of their last five games. That excellent run includes a 2-0 win away at Rangers, followed by a 3-0 win over Falkirk and then last weekend, the edged out Hibs 1-0 in a tight and keenly-contested Edinburgh derby.
Celtic come into this game having won two of their last three games following a 2-0 defeat at home to Braga in the Europa League. Since then the Celts beat Motherwell 3-2 but last weekend slipped up losing 2-0 at Dundee. They bounced back in midweek, coming from 1-0 down to beat Sturm Graz 2-1 in the Europa League at Celtic Park.

Our Heart Of Midlothian FC vs Celtic Prediction
Our prediction for the Hearts vs. Celtic Scottish Premiership match is: Draw.
Unbeaten this season and in much better form than their opponents, it is hard to see Hearts losing this fixture, even against a Celtic side against whom they have a very poor record. However, Celtic will know they cannot afford to let Hearts go eight points clear, even at this early stage of the season. A close game is likely and that means backing a draw between the two is a good value bet.
