Dundee United vs Celtic Betting Tips

Dundee United have had a disastrous Scottish Premiership season so far, and they look destined for relegation after picking up just ten points from their first 21 league matches.

This means they are already 11 points adrift of second from bottom Kilmarnock, and their form hasn’t been showing any signs of turning around.

They struggled past League One side Airdrieonians at the weekend in the 4^th Round of the Scottish Cup, requiring a 79^th minute goal to win the game 1-0.

However, in the Scottish Premiership they haven’t won any of their last eight games, with six of those being losses. In total, they have only managed two wins in their 21 league matches.

Celtic managed a much more convincing 3-0 win over Stranraer in the Scottish Cup at the weekend, making it four wins, two draws, and one defeat in their last seven games in all competitions.

This puts the Champions in a familiar top spot in the Scottish Premiership. They have a three point cushion and a game in hand over 2^nd placed Aberdeen.

Celtic have already put eight goals past Dundee United this season, with a 3-1 win away from home and a 5-0 hammering at Celtic Park. This makes it six wins in a row for Celtic against Dundee United, notching 20 goals and only conceding once.

Five of Celtic’s last six victories have been by a margin of two goals or more, and I think that another hammering could be on the cards here.

The visitors have managed comfortable wins over Dundee United in each of their last six matches, and with the hosts in such terrible form I think odds of 1.950 for a Celtic -1.5 Asian Handicap Win look excellent value for money. I’m also going to back a 4-1 correct score prediction at 16/1.
