Match Preview
Celtic will host Hibernian at Celtic Park on Saturday, 27 September, in a match that promises to be intriguing given both teams' recent form. The home side has had a mixed bag of results, with two wins, two draws, and a loss in their last five outings, while Hibernian comes into this fixture with a more consistent record, securing three wins and two losses in the same period. Historically, Celtic has had the upper hand in this matchup, winning six of the last ten encounters, which could give them a psychological edge.
One key angle to consider is Celtic's attacking prowess, which has seen them score over 2.5 goals in eight of their last ten meetings with Hibernian. With both teams showing the ability to find the net—evidenced by BTTS occurring in six of those encounters—this match could see plenty of action. Hibernian's recent form suggests they are capable of challenging Celtic, but the home advantage at a packed Celtic Park may prove decisive. Fans can expect an engaging contest with potential for goals on both sides.
