Football Betting Tips Celtic Glasgow vs St. Mirren

In the league, Celtic has to be much better off than at the end of the year in the 0-1 defeat of the Rangers. Only with a proper performance increase in the second half of the season, it will be something with the eighth championship title in a row. St Mirren is in the midst of the relegation battle and hopes to make it to the league with five new arrivals so far. In Celtic Park, however, it would take a small football miracle to take something countable there. The favourite role of the “Bhoys” is reflected in Celtic Glasgow against St Mirren in the odds of bookmakers. Rather, between Celtic Glasgow and St Mirren, the prognosis is towards a high home victory of the Green-Whites.

Celtic Glasgow – Statistics & Current Form

After the first Old Firm crash for Brendan Rodgers in his 13th Derby, the team once said goodbye to the winter training camp in Dubai, to regain strength there and work up the extremely weak first round. Home is Celtic Glasgow against St. Mirren, according to the odds of bookmakers still big favourite. In the first two years under Rodgers, there were only four defeats in total (none of them in the first season), the Green-Whites have now lost four games in the first 20 matches this season (13-3-4). Noteworthy, because there were defeats for the Northern Irish at Celtic in its 120 competitive matches in Scotland very rare (95-17-8). Especially in foreign countries Celtic expresses the shoe this season. Of the recent six away games, only eight out of a possible 18 points have been scored (2-2-2). In domestic Celtic Park, the series champion has so far been no nakedness and won all nine Premiership home games, the longest series since February 2017 (16 games). Celtic scored 26 goals in these nine games and conceded only four of them. In six matches Celtic conceded no goal.

Despite the weak preliminary round is not all bad at Celtic, finally, in a very strong Europa League group with Salzburg and Leipzig managed to move into the semifinals. There waiting at the beginning of February, the duel with Valencia. In addition, Celtic already won the League Cup in November and thus continues to dream of the “Triple Triple”. In the league, Celtic are still leading the standings due to their better goal difference against the Rangers and even have a catch-up game in the hindquarters. On the plane on the way home from the warm Arabian peninsula, back to the uncomfortable cold Glasgow, three new arrivals sat. Vakoun Issouf Bayo, Timothy Weah (Leihe, Paris SG) and Oliver Burke (Lending, West Brom) were hired for the offensive. Weah and Burke celebrated their debut in the Cup last weekend and Weah, the son of former world footballer George, scored as a substitute to 3-0 final score. At Celtic Glasgow vs. St. Mirren, our forecast is that both will also be needed on Wednesday, with Leigh Griffiths and Odsonne Edouard missing two attackers. Injured are Olivier Ntcham and Kieran Tierney, Tom Rogic is at the Asian Cup.

St. Mirren – Statistics & Current Form

The promoted from Paisley returned in the summer after three years abstinence back to the Premiership. The rise was sovereign, but came very surprising, because in October 2016 St Mirren was still bottom of the Scottish Championship. However, the Premiership season was not a good star from the start. The two main players in the promotion season left St Mirren before the start of the season. Coach Jack Ross, who won the “PFA Scotland Manager of the Year” award in spite of Brendan Rodgers “double triple” and Sir Alex Ferguson St Mirren in 1977, went to Sunderland for League One. With Lewis Morgan the best player changed to Celtic (last season 14 goals, nine assists). Gavin Reilly, with 22 competitive goals this season’s most accurate “Buddies” scorer, pulled it to the Bristol Rovers.

So far, St Mirren has not been able to compensate for this loss of quality and went into the winter break as the table penultimate of the Premiership with only twelve points (3-3-15). With Alan Stubbs the Ross successor was released on September 3 and only four games again. Under its successor Oran Kearney, however, it is not really better. The Nordire made his debut in the first leg against Celtic (0-0), but won only two of his 17 games (2-3-12) and lined up seven defeats in the meantime. The “Buddies” won only one of their ten away fixtures this season (1-2-7). So are the “buddies” on Wednesday evening at the series champion crass outsiders and even a high defeat is not excluded. At Celtic Glasgow against St Mirren odds for a tip on “over 3.5 goals” are therefore quite interesting. Winter entry Brad Lyons (loan, Blackburn) is suspended on Wednesday after being sent off in the Cup.
