St. Mirren vs Celtic Prediction: Both teams will score in this contest

The match between St. Mirren and Celtic, who are now leading their league, will take place in round 28 at the SMISA Stadium. St. Mirren's most recent encounter against St. Johnstone ended in a tie, but Celtic's victory over Rangers on Sunday ensured that they take home the trophy for the league cup.

After their meeting against St. Johnstone, which ended in a 1-1 draw in the Premiership, St. Mirren will be very prepared for this upcoming fixture. Throughout that game, St. Mirren had 52% possession of the ball and 20 shots on goal, with four of those shots finding the target. Alex Gogi scored the goal for St. Mirren in the eighty-sixth minute. St. Johnstone, the team they were playing against, had a total of 6 shots on goal, but only 2 of them were on target. St. Johnstone's goal was scored by Zak Rudden in the 70th minute. In recent matches, St. Mirren has not maintained a scoreless draw an embarrassingly infrequent number of times. In fact, St. Mirren has conceded goals in five of their last six matches, totaling ten conceded goals throughout the course of that stretch.

Celtic comes into this game on a high note after beating Rangers 1-2 in the League Cup in their last game. Kyogo Furuhashi was the only player on the Celtic team to score twice, in the 44th and 56th minutes. Alfredo Morelos scored the lone goal for Rangers in the 64th minute. In the last six matches that Celtic has participated in, there have been a total of 23 goals scored, which works out to an average of 3.83 goals per match. This demonstrates the team's propensity for high-scoring, action-packed contests. While looking at the facts before the match, Celtic are winless against St. Mirren when they have faced them outside of their home stadium in the two most recent league matches.

We anticipate that the home team will be able to break through Celtic's defense and score at least one goal despite the fact that Celtic's defense has been strong as of late. Because Celtic has such a potent offense, there is little reason to be concerned about the likelihood that they will score during this encounter. There is a significant chance that there will be over 3.5 goals scored in this match, given that both teams are likely to score and Celtic is the favorite to win.
