Command Analysis

Celtic

Current form

Before the start of the season in the Scottish Premier League, Celtic were considered clear contenders for the championship title, having a significant advantage over Rangers in terms of player selection. At the start, Brendan Rodgers' team was under pressure from Aberdeen, but gradually it faded away and they quickly managed to get a serious lead. At the moment, the Celts are leading the table with 60 points and are 13 points ahead of Rangers - it is unlikely that they will be able to lose such a handicap, especially since the Jerseys make mistakes very often.

Disqualifications and injuries

Kilmarnock

Current form

Kilmarnock approached the start of the season as a clear contender for a place in the top six – the selection of players allowed them to set such ambitious goals. However, the first half of the season, Derek Mackines' team frankly failed and currently occupies only the ninth line in the table with 25 points, four points behind sixth-placed Hibernian. In the last round, Kilmarnock drew 0-0 with Motherwell at home, thus missing an excellent opportunity to get closer to their competitors.

Disqualifications and injuries

Findlay is injured.

Interesting trends for betting

Kilmarnock have not won in their last two matches – a defeat and a draw
Kilmarnock have failed to score in three of their last four matches

Probable line-up: McCrory - Deyes, Mayo, Wright - Ndaba, Polworth, Lyons, Murray - Wells, Watkins, Magennis.

Tip and bets

Tiphandicap (-2) on Celtic

1.75

Celtic are clearly betting on winning the Cup and the hosts will have plenty of motivation today. In terms of class, the Celts are significantly superior to their opponents and are quite capable of setting themselves the task of winning a confident victory - in the championship, there is not much motivation, given the significant gap, and from time to time the Celts allow themselves mistakes, but in the Cup there is no such right and everything will be in order with concentration, it makes sense to count on a big victory for the favorite.

We think that the visitors have no chance. Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-2) on Celtic . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.75

Tipboth will score

2.05

Bet on total

Celtic are the favourites and will obviously try to settle everything in regular time and without unnecessary nerves – the hosts will probably go forward in force in the first half. It is unlikely that Killie has a real chance to play to zero today, the difference in class is too big and the visitors will clearly concede a lot. At the same time, the Celts have not been perfect in defence lately and have conceded four goals in the last two matches, they are quite capable of responding with one goal to the visitors.

Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 2.05

Bet on corners

Celtic are favourites and will likely dominate for the entire 90 minutes – the home side should win confidently on corners.

Bet - Asian handicap (-5) on corners for Celtic. This bet is offered for 1.79
