Celtic host Hamilton for their Matchday 16 clash on Wednesday evening, just days after outclassing Ross County (1-4) and connecting their tenth win in a row across competitions – which sees them top of the Premiership table and through to Europa League knockout stages with games to spare.
Bhoys will now hope to keep hold of the top spot as Rangers breathe down their necks and sit behind only for one goal difference. They will now surely want to build on it and we expect them very motivated to do so, used to an attacking approach at Celtic Park which has brought fruits as well.
Hamilton have struggled to cope with the big guns and this has been obvious through the early campaign. While they’ve proven themselves tougher to beat otherwise, struggles to turn clashes their way see them just a point clear of Premiership rock-bottom after 15 games played.
Accies earned just three points in four outings since early November, holding off Ross County (2-2), Kilmarnock (2-2), and Livingston (0-0) but seeing Rangers (1-3) snatch a comfortable win at Fountain of Youth Stadium along the way. They will hope to show off as a tougher outfit to play against but we don’t see them making it happen on the day.
We will thus back Celtic to secure the points with confidence and we expect a rather one-sided contest between the sides once again. With that in mind, we’re backing Celtic to win to Nil at 8/15 with bet365 – which has been rated buying money for old rope by many in the know already.
Odsonne Edouard has been furious lately and he’s bagged goals in all of his last four appearances with the club and the U21 French national team, opening the scoresheet against Motherwell and Livingston. We’re now sticking with him to do the same on Wednesday and backing Edouard to score first at 11/4 with bet365.
Celtic to win to Nil @ 8/15 with bet365
Odsonne Edouard to score first @ 11/4 with bet365
