FC Hearts hosts Celtic in round 12 of the Scottish Premiership. The match will be played on Wednesday, December 18th at Tynecastle Stadium (Edinburgh)
What happens to the current Hearts? The team simply has no money. Pitiful existence, a weak squad and logical place in the relegation zone. The hosts managed to gain only one victory in eleven rounds and lost seven games. There are big problems with scoring. The team is the worst in terms of the results of the home meetings. It gained only one victory in the home arena. There were always no special chances against Celtic even in the best times. What can Hearts oppose to the champion now? Well, it may only try to offer a battle and not lose with a devastating difference.

After the enchanting performance in the Europa League and especially after the victory over Glasgow Rangers in the League Cup, the Celts should concentrate all their attention on the national championship, where so far the correspondence struggle with Rangers continues. In my opinion, the visitors will certainly take what they want at a distance and will break away from the competitor. Yes, Celtic sometimes allows itself some liberties on the road, but the champion scores an average of three goals per round, so there is no doubt about the next victory of the White-Greens. The winning streak in the local championship amounts to seven rounds in a row, and the team gained victory with a difference of more than one goal in six matches of this streak.
I see no reason why Celtic will not be able to win. Given the game of Hearts, it is even surprising that bookmakers offer such a tempting coefficient for Celtic’s victory with a difference of two goals. The champion is in great shape, and it will only add over time. The hosts are unlikely to score, but at least two goals of Celtic are quite predicted.
Prediction for the match: Celtic to win with -1.5 handicap
