Celtic v Dundee

Celtic vs Dundee Preview

Celtic climbed back to the top of the Scottish Premiership table on the weekend thanks to picking up a 3-0 win away from home at Motherwell, while Dundee were handed another disappointing defeat in the Scottish top flight when they lost 2-1 at home to St Johnstone.

Celtic not only sit top of the Scottish Premiership table, albeit on goal difference, but The Hoops also remain unbeaten after their opening nine games of this new domestic top flight season, gaining no fewer than eight wins and a draw in the process.

Wednesday night's hosts have registered three wins and a draw so far on home soil at Celtic Park this season which have come in the form of victories gained over Kilmarnock 4-0, Old Firm rivals Rangers 3-0 and a solid 2-0 win against Hearts which should stand Brendan Rodgers' side in good stead for this upcoming midweek encounter.

The bigger picture further underlines Celtic's dominance in the Scottish Premiership as the hosts are unbeaten in each of their previous 18 league matches overall which also consists of collecting no fewer than 16 wins along the way.

In addition, Celtic have also kept a total of 11 clean sheets within this 18-game period as well.

Dundee therefore look to have their work cut out ahead of this upcoming trip to Celtic Park on Wednesday night especially as Dundee have managed to capture just two wins so far this season along with slipping to four defeats within their last five games overall in the Scottish Premiership.

Rare victories gained over the likes of Hearts and Motherwell have been swamped by losing four of their nine games overall to date in this new campaign which have seen the visitors handed losses at the hands of Ross County, Aberdeen, Kilmarnock and St Johnstone respectively.

As a result, Dundee occupy eighth place in the Scottish Premiership table while the bigger picture shows The ‘Dee have managed to pick up just the two aforementioned wins out of their last 17 matches overall in the domestic top flight.

Nine defeats within these previous 17 games suggests the visitors may well struggle to keep pace with their high-flying hosts here, especially as Dundee have picked up just two wins from their last 12 outings on the road in the Premiership.

In addition, Dundee have been handed six defeats within this period as well, along with keeping just two clean sheets within their last 15 away games which does not bode well for this upcoming clash at Celtic Park on Wednesday night.

Celtic v Dundee Verdict

Celtic have won each of the last 10 meetings on the trot against Dundee so needless to say the odds for a home win here are extremely slim; a win to nil for Celtic also looks to be on the cards.
