Goal Statistics

Celtic's forwards have been excellent of late, finding the net twice or more in 6 consecutive Premiership matches. A PG of 2.5 suggests that run should continue on Saturday afternoon.

A truly dismal PG of just 0.7 should cause concerns for Dundee United fans, as should a 5 Premiership matches run in which they have failed to score more than 1 goal.
