THE PREDICTION

Three successive defeats followed back-to-back draws for Aberdeen which means their two-match winning streak to kick-start the season is long gone and they, ahead of this weekend’s round of fixtures, have slipped into the bottom-half. They come up against a Celtic side that have been very inconsistent under Ange Postecoglu so far this season. The visitors have been high-scoring but just three wins in their opening seven matches means they sit six points off the top-of-the-table already. Postecoglu has been dealt a harsh hand with a poor transfer window and quite a few injuries but their 4-0 loss at home to Bayer Leverkusen in the UEFA Europa League in midweek might well heap the pressure on the former Australia national team manager. 17 goals scored suggests the majority of their games will be high-scoring so over 2.5 goals could be a strong bet for this one.
