Today's Predictions for Celtic vs Aberdeen

Celtic have won 23 of their 25 Premiership fixtures this season ahead of their clash with Aberdeen in Glasgow on Saturday. Read our top Celtic vs Aberdeen predictions for this weekend’s fixture below.

Celtic to Win to Nil

Celtic have been rampaging their way through the field in Scotland again this season and the Bhoys have won a staggering 23 of their 25 Premiership fixtures overall in 2022/23. A huge 48% of those victories have been accompanied by clean sheets and Celtic managed to beat Aberdeen to nil in each of the clubs’ two encounters earlier in the current campaign. Value here is hard to find, though a stake on the hosts to win to nil again makes the cut for our first Celtic vs Aberdeen prediction.

Kyogo Furuhashi to Score Anytime

Japanese hotshot Kyogo Furuhashi has battered home 19 goals in the Premiership already this term and the 28-year-old is one of the leading contenders to win the Golden Boot in Scotland’s top tier. Furuhashi has notched nine times in his last nine runouts in the division alone and the lethal finisher looks like a candidate worth backing in the anytime goalscorer markets again this weekend.

Celtic vs Aberdeen Team News & Injuries

Read all of the latest injury updates, Celtic vs Aberdeen lineups and team news for Saturday’s Premiership clash below.

Celtic

James McCarthy is still rated as doubtful as the midfielder steps up his recovery from a hamstring issue, though Celtic have a strong squad to pick from elsewhere. The Bhoys hammered St. Mirren 5-1 in their last contest and they are a meaty nine points clear of Rangers at the Premiership's summit.

Predicted Lineup for Celtic: Hart – Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Starfelt, Taylor – Mooy, McGregor, Turnbull – Jota, Maeda, Furuhashi

Aberdeen

Aberdeen have a clean bill of health ahead of their trip to Glasgow this weekend. The Dons snapped a run of five straight defeats with a timely 3-1 victory over Motherwell in their last game. Aberdeen are still down in 7th spot in the standings, though they are just four points shy of Livingston in 4th.

Predicted Lineup for Aberdeen: Gorter – Pollock, MacDonald, Sacles – Kennedy, Ramadani, Clarkson, Shinnie, Hayes – Miovski, Duk

Player to Watch – Daizen Maeda

Japanese attacker Daizen Maeda netted his fifth Premiership goal of the season in Celtic’s rout of St. Mirren last week and the 25-year-old has provided five assists from his berth on the flank as well in what has been a very productive campaign. Maeda will hope to bolster his tally further when he faces Aberdeen this weekend.

Starting Lineups

Official lineups are usually released approximately one hour before kick-off.
