LiontipsCeltic vs Dundee United. Prediction and bets on the match of the Scottish Championship
Command Analysis
Current form
Before the start of the season, Celtic were considered the main and only contenders for the championship title; Rangers have not created serious competition in recent years. The current season will most likely not be an exception – at the moment, Brendan Rodgers’ team leads the table with 53 points and is already 13 points ahead of second-placed Rangers. In the last round, the Celts left no chance for St. Mirren at home, beating the Saints 3-0 – the victory was the 17th of the season for Celtic.

At the moment, Jim Goodwin's team is third in the table with 34 points and is six points behind second-placed Rangers, and is behind Aberdeen due to additional indicators. In the last round, Dundee United failed to give Hearts a fight at home - a 0:1 defeat interrupted a series of three consecutive victories for the tangerines.

2.79Tip and bets
Celtic are confidently leading the table and are in excellent shape overall, with only a few local failures recently, but overall they have not affected the championship race in any way. It is obvious that today the Celts will strive to take the maximum and will play in their traditional style – as number one, with an eye on attack. It is unlikely that Dundee United have a chance to play to zero, but at the same time the tangerines look good against the giants this season and know how to put up a fight, the guests are capable of responding with one goal.
We believe that there will be goals in the match. Betting Tip - both will score . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.95
Bet on the outcome
Celtic are already 13 points ahead of Rangers, but there is still a significant part of the tournament distance ahead and for now such a handicap cannot guarantee anything. The Celts will clearly have no shortage of motivation at home and the bet will be made only on a victory. Dundee United took points from the Celts in their last face-to-face meeting, but it will be very difficult to pull off such a trick in the second match in a row, there is a gap in class between the teams, the favorite will surely easily take what is theirs.
Bet - Asian handicap (-2) on Celtic. This bet is offered for 1.69
Bet on corners
