Celtic

Falkirk

Over 3.5 Match Goals

Reason for tip

Celtic matches at Parkhead have been delivering goals, and this looks another strong candidate. Over 3.5 goals has landed in six of Celtic’s 11 home games in the Scottish Premiership this season, while five of their last seven league matches overall have featured at least four goals. Celtic’s recent 2-2 draw with Hearts continued that trend, and with Falkirk also in decent form, this has the feel of an open, attacking contest.

Celtic 3-1

Reason for tip

Celtic should still have too much quality at home, even if their defence has been less convincing lately. They have scored freely at Parkhead, while Falkirk arrive in decent nick after winning four of their last six games and a recent 2-0 away success. Celtic have won the last two Premiership meetings between the sides and usually create plenty of chances in these fixtures. Falkirk can make their mark, but Celtic’s firepower should tell, making a 3-1 home win a strong correct-score angle.

Goals expected at Parkhead as Celtic host Falkirk

This has the potential to turn into a goalfest when Celtic host Falkirk at Parkhead on Sunday. Back over 3.5 goals.

Celtic are third in the league, three places above Falkirk, with 12 points separating the two teams. Both have won more games than they’ve lost this season, with Celtic having 14 wins and Falkirk nine from their 23 games.

Celtic have enjoyed two straight Premiership victories against Falkirk but their recent form has been inconsistent, with three wins, one draw and two defeats in their last six games. Falkirk were 2-0 winners over St Mirren in their last away game last month and have won four of their last six matches.

Celtic threw away a late lead to draw 2-2 with Hearts in their last Premiership game, keeping up a recent trend of high-scoring games. Celtic were leading 1-0 at half time, the fourth game in a row that they have been leading at the break, but were unable to hold on for the win.

Over 3.5 goals has been a winning bet in six of Celtic’s 11 Premiership home games this season, and five of their last seven league matches have seen four goals or more.

A 3-1 win for Celtic is an appealing correct-score option. Nine of the Hoops’ 23 league matches this season have produced over 3.5 goals.
