Under 2.5 Match Goals

Reason for tip

Fewer than three goals have been scored in six of St Johnstone’s last nine games and also in Celtic’s last two games. Celtic and St Johnstone played out a 0-0 draw in Glasgow earlier this season, one of seven clean sheets the champions have kept in the league, and this could be another low-scoring affair.

Celtic 2-0

Reason for tip

St Johnstone have failed to score in eight of their 13 Premiership games to date and are unlikely to trouble leaders Celtic on Sunday. They lost 2-0 at home to the Hoops’ Old Firm rivals Rangers earlier this season. Celtic scored twice at struggling Motherwell and three times at lowly Livingston and Ross County, but are returning from a tiring Champions League trip to Rome and may struggle to find their rhythm.

David Turnbull To Score Anytime

Reason for tip

David Turnbull has scored in each of his last four Premiership games and is back on penalty duty after Luis Palma’s miss from the spot against Motherwell last weekend.

Perth clash unlikely to be a scorcher

Celtic head to Perth on Sunday to take on a St Johnstone side that have begun to dig themselves out of trouble under Craig Levein.

The ex-Scotland boss has guided them to a draw, a win and a defeat in his three games in charge but appears to have fixed a leaky defence that had shipped four away to St Mirren at the end of October.

The Saints were unlucky not to take something from their trip to Tynecastle last weekend after enjoying the lion’s share of chances in a 1-0 defeat secured by Lawrence Shankland’s deflected effort.

Game could mirror Rangers result

It is another step up, however, to be competitive against the champions, even if Celtic are not as convincing now as they were under Ange Postecoglu.

The Hoops have won six of their seven away Premiership games this term and only failed to score on the road against Hibernian.

Brendan Rodgers’ side can take another three points at McDiarmid Park at short odds, but the value lies in backing there to be fewer than three goals in the game. Six of the Saints’ last nine have seen Under 2.5 goals registered, including a 2-0 home reverse to Rangers that this game could mirror.
