Celtic FC vs Saint Johnstone
Celtic will start the Premier League campaign this season as the host. They are determined to achieve maximum results even with the preparation of a tight fight against St Johnstone. The match was held on Saturday (3/8) at Celtic Park.
Celtic is still playing until Wednesday (31/8) against Nomme JK Kalju in the second round of the Champions League. The result, they managed to steal the score 0-2 from there to close the aggregate to 7-0.
The host role will be a big motivation for children after last season managed to close the task without losing, namely with 17 wins and 2 draws. They also hosted the most fertile and conceded the least after scoring 46 goals and conceding only 7 times.
On the other hand, St Johnstone has a week to prepare for the match tomorrow after appearing at home to Forfar last Saturday (27/7). Unfortunately, they lost 2-1 in that match so they could only be ranked 4th in Group B until match day 4 of the League Cup.
Facing the Celtic is certainly a more difficult test, it has been proven by the last 6 meetings that the rival has converted to 5 wins and 1 draw. In fact, St Johnstone never scored against Celtic during this period, while their goal has conceded 16 times.
A bit of a flashback, last season St Johnstone was only able to land in 6th place with 7 wins, 2 draws and 10 defeats in away games. With these various burdens, it looks like they will again receive bad results in tomorrow’s match.
Our Prediction: 1
Odds: 1.17
