Celtic set for another comfortable victory against Livingston

Livingston FC vs Celtic FC - 04/03/2020

On Wednesday night, reigning Scottish champions Celtic visit Livingston looking to move one step closer to retaining their SPL crown.

The home side has enjoyed a mixed campaign in the Scottish top-flight this season. However, they are currently fifth place in the table, just four points outside the European spots in the SPL. A win in this clash would give Gary Holt’s team a big boost heading into the final stretch of the season.

They will need to improve if they are to make a dash for the top-three this season, though, as they have won just one of their last four matches in the SPL. Last time out, they drew 1-1 with Hibs at Easter Road.

Livingston’s recent SPL games have been tight, low-scoring affairs with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their last eight league outings.

Their recent home form in the Scottish top-flight has been impressive though, as Livingston have won their last six home matches in the SPL. That stellar home form has been built on solid defensive foundations, as the home side has kept clean sheets in six of their last seven league games at the Tony Macaroni Arena.

Reigning Scottish champions Celtic look set to run away once again with the league title. Neil Lennon’s team are 12 points clear of second-place Rangers in the race for the SPL crown.

The Hoops heads into this game on the back of eight straight wins in the SPL, having scored at least two goals in all eight wins. In fact, the reigning champions have now won 19 of their last 20 games in the Scottish top-flight.

Unsurprisingly, Celtic have won their last nine matches on their travels in the SPL. However, their last away defeat in the league came at Livingston back in October.

Forebet predicts that Celtic will record another away victory in a high-scoring encounter to continue their relentless march to another Scottish title.
