Celtic vs Raith Predictions

• Across the last three meetings, Celtic have beaten Raith by an aggregate of 8-0.
• Raith have emerged victorious just once across their last nine games.

Hoops imperious form

The hosts come into this one on an incredible run of 16 matches unbeaten across all competitions and they’ll be keen to extend that run here against struggling Raith Rovers. The Hoops have had some fantastic performances since the turn of the New Year, in particular, a 3-0 thumping of Rangers in the Old Firm Derby. This good form has seen them rise to the summit of the Scottish Premiership, pick up the Scottish League Cup trophy and now they’ll be hopeful of progressing to the next round and a step closer to another domestic final.

Visitors Raith Rovers have struggled since the fourth round of this competition, failing to win any of their following three Scottish Championship games. They’ve tasted victory just once across their last nine outings and you’d forgive them for believing they might not stand a chance here. However, their ability to show a fighting spirit and keep games tight is not to be underestimated and they will come here to stifle and frustrate Ange Postecoglou’s men.

One-way traffic likely in Glasgow

We don’t see the visitors laying a glove on Celtic offensively and will be hoping that they can nick a goal and hold onto it. However, inviting Celtic to dominate the game in your half is dangerous and we see the hosts winning this one by way of a clean sheet.
