by Steve Ashfield in Scottish Premiership Predictions
Celtic begin the weekend top of the Scottish Premiership. That might not be the case when this match begins on Sunday. The Celts travel to fifth placed Motherwell looking for an eighth league win of the season. Time for our match prediction.
A point for Aberdeen on Saturday will see them go top of the table. Celtic have 22 points from their eight league games this season. They'd won the first seven in a row and looked on course for an eighth last week.
The Bhoys led Aberdeen 2-0 at home but ended up drawing the match 2-2. Another draw followed in midweek, this time 0-0 at Atalanta in the Champions League. Celtic have won all four of their away Scottish Premiership games this season.
13 goals have been scored with just one conceded. They have won their last eight away league visits to Motherwell.
The home side have won four of their eight league fixtures this season. Two out of four have been won at home but were beaten by Dundee in their most recent match. Only three of their last ten home league games have been won.
We tip Celtic to win and lead at both half and full time.
