The Scottish Premiership is set to deliver another round of thrilling clashes this weekend, with giants Rangers and Celtic preparing to showcase their dominance. Let’s dive into the upcoming matches and make some predictions.
St Johnstone vs. Rangers (Saturday, 12.30pm)
St Johnstone will look to frustrate another Glaswegian giant when they face Rangers at McDiarmid Park.
While the hosts are yet to secure a win in their opening four league fixtures, Rangers’ recent dip in form adds pressure to manager Beale.
However, with the firepower at their disposal, the Gers should have enough to outscore their opponents.
Our prediction: St Johnstone 1-2 Rangers.
Celtic vs. Dundee (Saturday, 3.00pm)
Reigning champions Celtic will aim to extend their position at the top of the table as they welcome Dundee to Parkhead.
Although missing key players, Celtic are still firm favorites to triumph over Dundee. Rodgers’s side possesses the quality to breach their opponent’s defense and claim a comfortable victory on home soil.
Our prediction: Celtic 3-0 Dundee.
Hearts vs. Aberdeen (Saturday, 3.00pm)
Hearts and Aberdeen clash in what promises to be an intense battle. Both teams are yet to reach their full potential this season, making it difficult to predict the outcome. Considering their struggles, a low-scoring draw seems plausible.
Our prediction: Hearts 1-1 Aberdeen.
Kilmarnock vs. Hibernian (Saturday, 3.00pm)
With the recently appointed Nick Montgomery taking charge, Hibernian aims to improve their form against Kilmarnock.
Separated by just a point in the league table, these teams are evenly matched. While Hibs will be eager to impress their new manager, a draw seems likely as Kilmarnock seeks to kick-start their campaign at home.
Our prediction: Kilmarnock 1-1 Hibernian.
Motherwell vs. St Mirren (Saturday, 3.00pm)
Two undefeated teams in the Premiership, Motherwell and St Mirren, clash in an exciting encounter. With both sides performing well this season, it promises to be a tight contest.
However, playing at Fir Park gives Motherwell the edge, and we expect them to continue their winning streak with a narrow victory.
Our prediction: Motherwell 2-1 St Mirren.
Ross County vs. Livingston (Saturday, 3.00pm)
In another mid-table matchup, Ross County welcomes Livingston for a thrilling clash. Both teams have shown resilience despite challenging starts.
Previous encounters suggest a closely contested match, leaving little room to separate the sides.
Our prediction: Ross County 1-1 Livingston.
