Celtic vs St. Mirren Prediction: Celtic to get their first leg loss revenge against St. Mirren

In the round of 22 fixtures for the Scottish Premiership, Celtic will be the hosts at Celtic Park when they take on St. Mirren. St. Mirren prevailed over their opponent 2-0 at home in the opening leg of this match. On the other hand, we anticipate Celtic to get their revenge and win this match.

Following their victory in the League Cup match against Kilmarnock by a score of 2-0, Celtic will be hoping for a similar outcome in this match as well. Daizen Maeda, at 18 minutes, and Giorgos Giakoumakis, at 95 minutes, were able to find the back of the net for Celtic. The most recent results of these matches highlight the fact that the Celtic defense is performing as expected. Celtic's defense has been solid as of late, as evidenced by the fact that just four goals have been scored against them in their last six matches, despite the fact that they have a very good goalie. Celtic are currently unbeaten in their last 35 home league matches, which is a wonderful record for their home stadium.

St. Mirren will be looking to redeem themselves after their performance in the previous Premiership game, which was a loss to Hearts. During that game, St. Mirren had 32% possession of the ball and 19 shots on goal, with 4 of those shots finding the target. Hearts, the team they were playing against, had a total of 12 shots on goal, with only three of them hitting the target. The goal for Hearts was scored by Barrie McKay in the 29th minute. Taking a look at their recent results, we can see that St. Mirren have conceded goals in 5 of their previous 6 matches, with their opponents scoring a total of 5 goals. St. Mirren has not been performing all that admirably in the defensive third. In any case, all we can do is wait and watch to see if the aforementioned pattern will continue to hold true in this particular matchup.

It is anticipated that Celtic would prevail in this encounter. The home team is playing exceptionally well, and they really need a victory in order to keep their league aspirations alive. Bet that Celtic will win and that there will be more than 2.5 goals scored.
