Celtic vs Rangers prediction

• Competition: Scotland - Premiership
• Date: Sunday, 1st, May 2022
• Kick off at 12:00 UK/13.00 CET
• Venue: Celtic Park (Glasgow)

After the defeat in the semi-final of the Scottish Cup by Rangers (1-2), The Hoops quickly returned to the winning rhythm, achieving a comfortable 2-0 victory over Ross County in the last league match. It was Celtic's sixth consecutive triumph in the Premiership, keeping the team six points ahead of Rangers, meaning they are on the verge of becoming champions for the 10th time in the previous 11 seasons. Meanwhile, Rangers were great in the first game of the Europa League semi-final, the team defended perfectly and stopped a number of Leipzig attacks, but they left Red Bull Arena with a minimal 0-1 defeat. Namely, if Rangers still wants to continue the race to defend the Premiership title with three rounds until the end of the season, they desperately need a victory in the Scottish derby.

Celtic vs Rangers Betting Tips

The fifth and last "Old Firm" meeting of this season awaits us on Sunday, while Rangers came out as the winner in the previous duel of angry rivals, beating them 2-1 in the semi-final of the Scottish Cup. The Gers are aware of the fact that despite the triumph on Sunday, their chances of defending the title are minimal with two rounds until the end of the season, and they will already be focused on the second leg of the UEFA Europa League. In addition, Giovanni van Bronckhorst's team is exhausted by European efforts, so I do not believe that he will be at a high level in this, which gives positive hopes that Celtic will seal the title this weekend. Not only was Celtic sharp in front of goal, but their defense was strong, especially on the home turf, keeping a clean sheet in 8 of the previous 10 home games in the Premiership. Taking everything into account, Celtic should use the advantage of the home field to the maximum and become the champion for the 52nd time in their history in the Premiership.
