Celtic hosts Glasgow Rangers in round 21 of Scottish Premiership. The match will be played on Sunday, December 29th at Celtic Park (Glasgow)
Celtic approaches this meeting in a good mood. Firstly, the recent game of the League Cup with Glasgow Rangers ended in a minimal victory, and secondly, successful performance in the Europa League means Euro Cup spring and the team of Lennon can focus on the local championship. The gap from the Teddy Bears is gradually starting to increase, and they will probably lose points with some middle peasant. The hosts won all ten home games of the current championship and taking into account the Europa League, this figure increased to fourteen. Where Celtic can finally solve all the issues, if not in the derby? Only one thing is surprising - why do bookmakers offer such a wonderful coefficient for the hosts’ victory in this game?

Glasgow Rangers managed to gain only one victory in twenty head-to-head matches at Celtic Park. This is perhaps all you need to know about the chances of visitors in this derby. Yes, sometimes the Light Blues managed to scratch out the victory at home, but this year the opponents met already four times and Glasgow Rangers was able to win only once. Draws with Aberdeen and Hearts - Gerrard's squad sometimes takes liberties and loses points on the road where it is unnecessary at all. I cannot give a single argument in favor of Glasgow Rangers, although the rivals are almost identical in the number of goals scored and conceded.
It is difficult to say whether the level of the national championship in Scotland is growing. Judging by the fact that both Glasgow Rangers and Celtic showed good results in Europe, we can say yes. Nevertheless, Celtic looks a bit stronger than its rival does. Yes, the Celts may not win, but excuse me; the team of Lennon simply has no right to lose with such indicators at home, even with some problems with the lineup. Most likely, the game will end in a victory of the hosts with a difference of two goals. But I won’t take risks because a zero handicap for such a coefficient seems a more safe bet.
Prediction for the match: Celtic to win with 0.0 handicap
