Kilmarnock lost to Dundee FC the previous weekend and will look to turn the tables this time. In that encounter, Kilmarnock won the first half, with Bruce Anderson and Matthew Kennedy getting on the scoresheet. However, Dundee FC pulled one back before the break, while second-half strikes from Jordan McGhee and Ziyad Larkeche were enough to secure maximum points for them. Heading into this fixture, Kilmarnock have lost twice in their last three matches, one against Ross County. However, they did well to secure a 1-2 win over Hearts away from home.
Celtic
Celtic showed their competitiveness against RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League last weekend and will look to show that in this fixture. In that encounter, Celtic had to come from behind to seal maximum points, having gone behind in the 23rd minute. However, thanks to Nocola-Gerrit Kuhn’s brace before the break, Celtic turned the table before a 72nd-minute Reo Hatate’s strike. In the meantime, Celtic last league encounter was against Dundee FC and they won 2-0. Celtic have a winning run of four games and an unbeaten record of eight matches heading into this game.
Expert Betting Tips
Celtic remain favorites, and they do not look like a side that can be stopped. While Kilmarnock also lost more in their last three matches, their record in the standings is not too good either. Expect Celtic to dominate each half, and just like their offensive dominance in recent games, I expect a similar outcome.
