Celtic vs Ross County Predictions

• Celtic conceded in five of their final six Premiership home games last season, winning four of them.
• Ross County have scored in three of their last four meetings with Celtic.
• Celtic have won nine successive meetings with Ross County.

Celtic out to defend title

Celtic romped to the Scottish Premiership title last season and they can get their title defence off to a winning start against last season’s relegation play-off survivors Ross County.

After wrapping up the title, The Bhoys did go off the boil somewhat but still racked up 99 league points and scored 114 goals, although they conceded almost a goal per game at the other end.

The hosts kept just one clean sheet from their final six home league games but scored a phenomenal 17 goals in this period, winning four times.

County can hit back against Bhoys

Ross County, meanwhile, managed to score in five of their final six Premiership away games and have netted in three of their last four meetings with Celtic. However, with each of their last nine encounters ending in defeat, a Celtic win and both teams to score holds a lot of appeal.

Celtic scored exactly three goals in three of their final six home games and won 3-1 twice, so that looks the best option for a correct score punt.
