Predictions

CELTIC - DUNDEE UNITED

  • The market expects a one-sided afternoon. Celtic is the shortest price on a book of 1.22 / 6.00 / 10.00 (1 / X / 2), an implied 75.5%. Across the three outcomes the book reads 75.5% / 15.3% / 9.2% on an overround of 8.6%.

  • Liquidity is strong — €10,190 already matched on the 1X2 market, putting this among the most heavily traded fixtures on the card. Prices in a market that deep are far more reliable than in a thin one.

  • In the league table Celtic sit 1st on 27 points (9W 0D 1L) with Dundee United 4th on 15 points (4W 3D 3L).

  • Celtic read W-L-W-L-W-L across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (3W 0D 3L) — patchy.

  • Dundee United read W-D-W-W-D-L across their last 6 in all competitions, most recent first (3W 2D 1L) — patchy.

  • Head to head the record reads 4-0-2 — Celtic wins, draws, then Dundee United wins. Their last meeting finished Dundee United - Celtic: 0-4.

  • Our last-six model flags 3 qualifying strikes here. Reading Celtic first, then Dundee United, out of their last six: HT O 1.50 5 and 2, GG 6 and 3, HT GG 5 and 1.

  • Celtic lean hardest on Kieran Tierney (9.5), Mika Baur (9.5), Colby Donovan (9.5) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.

  • Dundee United lean hardest on Jack Walton (9.5), Joshua Rawlins (9.5), Dylan Tait (9.5) on our Player Index — how much of the side's football each man accounts for, out of 10. It measures involvement and cover, not performance.

  • The read: Celtic at 1.22 is short enough that the value, if there is any, sits on the handicap or in the goals market rather than the outright.
