Motherwell vs Celtic Prediction & Betting Tips

Motherwell vs Celtic Preview

This Scottish Premiership clash at Fir Park looks set to be a one-sided affair on paper, with Celtic arriving as clear favourites riding a strong wave of form.

Motherwell have shown some fight recently but have struggled for consistency, making this a tough assignment for the home side.

Motherwell Struggling To Find Their Feet At Home

Motherwell’s overall form tells a mixed story. They drew 1-1 with Hearts in their last home outing, and while they pulled off an impressive away win at Rangers, beating them 3-2 on 26 April, they lost at Falkirk 1-0 the week before. It has been a frustrating run for the Steelmen.

Looking at their home record specifically, things have been patchy. A stubborn 0-0 draw with Hibernian and back-to-back wins over Dundee United and Aberdeen earlier in the year showed promise, but they also suffered a painful 2-3 defeat at home to Falkirk in April. Motherwell simply cannot find reliable footing in front of their own fans.

Celtic Firing On All Cylinders Away From Home

Celtic’s overall form has been dominant and clinical. They beat Rangers 3-1 at home, won away at Hibernian 2-1, and also dispatched Falkirk 3-1 at Parkhead, keeping their title push alive with composed performances throughout.

Away from home, Celtic have been particularly ruthless in recent outings. They won at Dundee FC 2-1 and grabbed another away victory at Aberdeen 2-1, though they did slip to a 2-0 loss at Dundee United and drew 2-2 at Rangers earlier in the year. Their away record remains largely convincing and hard to argue against.

Motherwell vs Celtic Prediction

Celtic look nailed-on to take all three points here. Their quality and momentum make them too strong for a Motherwell side lacking confidence at home, so backing Celtic to win and over 2.5 goals at 2.50 odds makes real sense.

Daizen Maeda has been in unstoppable form, scoring six goals in his last four appearances for Celtic, making him an excellent pick as anytime goalscorer at 2.20 odds.

Celtic winning 3-1 fits the pattern of this fixture well, especially given the head-to-head history where Celtic won 3-1 at Parkhead earlier this season, and that correct score is available at 13.00 odds.
