Ross County vs Celtic Prediction & Betting Tips - Scottish Premiership

Prediction published on 03/08/2022, 22:51  by Indran in Football Predictions

Ross County welcomes champions Celtic to the Global Energy Stadium for this match in the Scottish Premiership. The home team started their league campaign with a 2-1 away loss to Hearts and will be desperate to avoid two defeats. Ross County finished last season in sixth spot and narrowly missed out on a Europa Conference league spot with the main reason being their poor home form as they only won five matches while losing seven. They were in superb pre-season form, winning five matches in a row but were poor in their season opener. Things don’t get any easier for them as they face a Celtic team looking to defend their title. They have lost their last four matches against Celtic and only scored a single goal across the four matches while conceding nine. Ross County have only won two of their last six home matches although those wins have come in the last two matches.

Celtic kicked off their title defence with a comfortable 2-0 home win over Aberdeen and will be looking for consecutive wins to begin the season. They had a fairly long pre-season playing six matches with three wins and three draws. Celtic are unbeaten in their last 12 matches across all competitions with seven wins and five draws. They have only lost once in their last 20 matches with that loss coming against old rivals Rangers in last season’s Scottish Cup. Celtic have proven just as difficult to beat on their travels as they are unbeaten in their last ten away matches.
