LiontipsCeltic vs Hibernian. Prediction and bets on the match of the Scottish Championship
Command Analysis
Current form
Celtic are confidently in first place in the league table, having lost only two points in 14 rounds played. They are seven points ahead of their closest pursuer, Aberdeen, and this is despite having one game in hand. They have scored 41 goals in all games and conceded only four. Both figures are the best in the national championship. The club is currently on a 13-match unbeaten streak, winning ten of them. There is, of course, no desire to interrupt such amazing statistics.
Disqualifications and injuries
Holm is injured and will not take the field.
Interesting trends for betting
- Celtic are unbeaten in their last 13 matches, winning ten and drawing three.
- Celtic have scored in 14 of their last 15 matches
Probable line-up: Schmeichel - Valle, Scales, Carter-Vickers, Johnston - Bernardo, McGregor, Makowan - Maeda, Idah, Forrest.
Current form
Hibernian did not start the season in the best way and after 15 rounds played they occupy the penultimate place in the standings. However, the game of the guests of the upcoming match has been transformed recently. In three of the five previous rounds they managed to score points. In the last match, unexpectedly for many, they managed to beat Motterwell with a large score (3:0). This victory was only the second in the national championship in the current competition. At the moment, the team has a two-match unbeaten streak, which will be very problematic to extend.

1.32Tip and bets
Celtic are a lot stronger than their opponents, and Hibernian tend to struggle against teams higher up the ladder, especially when the game is away from home.
Celtic, in turn, have won eight of their last ten games in front of their home fans, and all of them were by at least two goals, so we expect an equally confident victory from the leader of the ratings.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-1.5) on Celtic with odds of 1.52
Bet on total
Celtic have kept three of their last four home wins without scoring, while Hibernian have failed to score in three of their last six away defeats. Both teams have scored in the last four head-to-head encounters at this stadium. At some point, that statistic is bound to falter. Given the excellent form the hosts are currently in, we're inclined to think that will happen in this encounter.
Our prediction is that at least one will not score with a coefficient of 1.82
Bet on corners
If Celtic play the football they can, they are very likely to win the upcoming match, if not in all, then in many components. Let bet on the hosts taking significantly more corners.
Our prediction is Asian handicap (-2.5) corners for Celtic with odds of 1.67
