Dundee vs Celtic Prediction and Betting Tips

Dundee will host Celtic at the Dens Park on Tuesday in another round of the 2023-24 Scottish Premiership campaign.

The home side have had mixed results following promotion to the top-flight but remain well on course to avoid the drop. They beat Ross County 1-0 in their last match with team captain Joe Shaugnessy scoring the game-winner at the death to take his tally for the season to three.

Dundee sit mid-table in seventh place with 21 points from 16 games and will be looking to build on their latest result this week.

Celtic have enjoyed a strong league campaign as they look to successfully defend their Premiership title. They returned to winning ways in the league on Saturday with Kyogo Furuhashi and Liam Scales scoring a quickfire double early after the restart to help seal a dominant victory on home turf.

The visitors sit atop the Premiership standings with 45 points picked so far. They are just two points above rivals Rangers and will be looking to widen that gap with a win on Tuesday.

Dundee vs Celtic Prediction

Dundee's latest result ended a three-game winless run and they will now be looking to kick on from that when they play this week. They have however won just two of their last six games at Dens Park and could struggle here.

Similarly, Celtic saw their latest result end a run of consecutive defeats in the league and they will aim to build on that on Tuesday. They have lost three of their last four away matches but should have more than enough to come away with maximum points this week.

Prediction: Dundee 0-3 Celtic
