Considering the aspirations St. Mirren had at the beginning of the season, they are in a fairly favorable position in the league standings. They’ve accumulated 29 points, positioning them within the Championship group and granting them a 7-point lead over Dundee FC in the Playout group. St. Mirren is within striking distance of the table’s third spot, an incentive to vie for places that could lead to European tournaments. Their impressive win against Aberdeen in the previous round certainly made a statement.
Celtic is among the top two Scottish clubs of all time and after winning three games in a row, they lead their main competitor, Rangers, by 8 points. The final victory in this winning streak was a 2-1 win over Rangers in the Old Firm Derby. However, with two less games played, Rangers still have a chance to compete for the title. As the best away team this season, Celtic has won 8 out of the 10 games they’ve played so far.
St. Mirren vs Celtic pick: CELTIC TO WIN AND COVER AH -1
Celtic has occasionally faced challenges while playing in this stadium, as evidenced by their 2-0 loss two years ago. However, generally speaking, the Glasgow-based club does not struggle here, having secured victories in 8 out of their last 10 matches. St. Mirren might pose a significant challenge in the first half, but Celtic’s superior quality is likely to shine through in the second half. Therefore, betting on Celtic winning with AH -1 is the most advisable choice for this match.
