Best Tip: Celtic to win

Studying the bookies' odds and collated stats regarding both sides ahead of this Premiership match, a bet on win / draw / win for Celtic to win in front of their own fans is the way we would recommend bettors go. We predict they will be too strong for Ross County, and head-to-head (H2H) records show they have the pedigree to do so. It could be a tighter than we expect, but Celtic winning is the bet come Saturday afternoon.
