Both sides are in perfect forms right now, as usual, and we will be shocked to see anything different.

Draw No Bet Prediction: Celtic Draw No Bet

In recent years, Rangers were fortunate enough to beat Celtic several times at home. They did so in four out of the last five home games. However, Celtic seem like the much stronger team this season in general as well as right now. While Rangers are in a series of four wins in a row, Celtic are in a series of 13 wins in a row and their most recent results have been a lot stronger. They also destroyed Rangers in the first encounter of the season.

Correct Score Prediction: 1:2 to Celtic

We do not expect the same dominant performance from Celtic in this game but a rather close match. Still, we envision a win for the visitors and we find the most value in the 1:2 correct score option.

Rangers vs Celtic: Form, Recent Games, and News

Rangers Preview

Rangers have been Celtic's only rival in the Scottish Premiership for years but this season has been disappointing for them already. There have been months and even entire seasons when Rangers did not lose a single match against another team but Celtic but this campaign has been different and Rangers already failed in five out of 19 games. Their attack and defense rank second after Celtic and their chances for the title are almost gone now.

Celtic Preview

Celtic have been champions in every single season in the last decade apart from 2021 when Rangers stole the throne. This season has been no different than the rest – Celtic are the absolute best team, with the strongest attack and the strongest defense. Their goal difference after just 19 games is 61:15. The team has a single defeat in the league in over a year. They will almost certainly win the title again.
