We’re all set for a blockbuster in the east end of Glasgow tonight where top spot in the Scottish Premiership is on the line.
Upon the return from the winter break Celtic were six points behind their rivals Rangers but draws for Giovanni Van Bronckhurst’s side with Aberdeen and Ross County have allowed the Hoops to close the gap to just two and presents them with the chance to go top of the table for the first time this season.
Rangers stole the back page headlines on transfer deadline day with the loan signing of Aaron Ramsay but the Welsh internationalist won’t feature tonight. While Celtic could be boosted by the return of captain Callum McGregor and Daizen Maeda who has dashed back from international duty with Japan.
Both clubs have opted not give the other any away tickets this season so there’ll be 60,000 Celtic fans roaring on the Hoops and making it as hostile for the visitors as possible. All these elements point towards things falling in favour of Ange Postecoglou’s men and they’ll be well supported at 23/20.
However they’ve not won this fixture in the last seven meetings (D1 L6) so they desperately need to get that moneky off their back if they’re to go on and reclaim the Premiership title.
Cards are always a popular bet when these two meet but beware the man in middle, Bobby Madden who has been keeping his cards in his pocket this season. He’s dished out just 33 yellows in his 12 Premiership matches so far (2.75 per game), compare that to the 5.50 per match shown by the likes of David Dickinson and Greg Aitken, but he has also flashed three red cards.
Although this match is one like no other, both Celtic and Rangers boast the best disciplinary records in the league too and with there being no Scott Brown anymore for Celtic or even Alfredo Morelos for Rangers, who is on international duty, there’s not too many stand-out card options and it could pay to Under 5.5 Cards at 5/6.
