Motherwell vs Celtic Prediction: The visiting Celtic to exploit Motherwell’s weaknesses

At Fir Park, Motherwell will play Celtic in round 25 of the Scottish Premiership. The two teams are coming off a defeat and will hope for a better result here. Will there be a winner in this matchup? Below, I give a full game preview and make predictions. 

Motherwell

Motherwell are coming off a defeat against St Johnstone in a game that ended 2-1. In that encounter, Andy Halliday's strike from the spot put Motherwell in the league just four minutes into kickoff. However, a poor second-half performance saw them concede twice in the last five minutes of the game. Heading into this game, Motherwell have lost their last three matches, while failing to win any of their last four encounters. This season, Motherwell have 31 points from 24 matches which sees them sit 5th. 

Celtic

Celtic last encounter was in the Champions League against Aston Villa which they lost. In a game that ended 4-2, Morgan Rogers scored a hat trick for their opponent while Ollie Watkins also netted in the 60th minute. In the meantime, despite Adam Idah scoring a brace, it was not enough to see this side avoid a defeat at full time. Heading into this game, Celtic have lost only one of their last seven competitive matches where they won five and drew one. This season, Celtic have 60 points from 23 games which put them seated top of the standings. 

Expert Betting Tips

Motherwell might be at home, but they are just nowhere close to Celtic. However, with the two teams coming off a defeat, I expect them to approach this game with confidence, high level of intensity and determination. Looking at what these teams could give, I believe Celtic will deliver a quality performance here. Bet on the visiting team to win with goals, while Motherwell also gets a goal. Also, with a lot of attacking play expected, a bet on corners is another option to consider.

My first option is a win for Celtic and over 2.5 goals with odds at 1.77 on 1Xbet

My second option is over 11 corner with odds at 2.00 on Bet365

My last option is both teams scoring with odds at 2.00 on Betway
