Celtic v Motherwell Preview And Predictions - Scottish Premiership - Phase 2, Match 5

Celtic may have nothing to play for here having secured the title already, but Motherwell will be seeking a result to keep them ahead of Dundee Utd and avoid another round of qualifiers for next season’s Europa Conference League. With Dundee Utd facing a comparatively easy task as they take on sixth-placed Ross County, Motherwell could well be disappointed with the outcome.

There appears little prospect of Celtic taking their foot off the gas, and even if Ange Postecoglou was to use this encounter to hand some game time to those who have been on the fringes, his squad is certainly deep enough to field a strong team. 

The Hoops may have been held to a stalemate on the road at Dundee Utd last time out, but the result still leaves them unbeaten in league action since late September, winning 25 of 31 games.

On home turf alone, Celtic haven’t tasted defeat in the league going back to February 2021, including 11 wins from 12 since November as only Rangers walked away from Parkhead with a point to show for their efforts.

Celtic To Win To Nil

Eight of those victories saw them register clean sheets, while five of their last seven appearances here have seen them end up with a minimum two-goal margin come the final whistle – including recent big wins over Ross County (4-0), St. Johnstone (7-0) and Hearts (4-1).

Despite that impressive record of clean sheets, Motherwell aren’t a bad side going forwards and have only failed to score once across their past nine matches in all competitions. 

They’ve even found the net in all seven clashes with Rangers since the start of last season, though all three meetings with Celtic this term have seen them draw blanks.

Motherwell’s poor record on their travels also has to be taken into account. A victory over Ross County in their last away game was a first in 12 trips (W1-D4-L7), as they failed to score in five of those defeats. 

Given Celtic have conceded just six times in 18 home league games this term, it would appear likely that another shutout beckons here.
