St Mirren are one of the few teams Celtic were unable to dominate across the last six games. The Saints posted a record of 2W-1D-3L versus Celtic in all competitions.
The teams will meet for the second time in the Premiership in 2022-23 on Wednesday. The previous fixture saw St Mirren win at home by a score of 2-0. The home team is unbeaten in four straight games between these sides heading into Wednesday’s clash.

Kilmarnock vs Rangers
singleSelection
Rangers won five of their last six games against Kilmarnock in all competitions. The Blues won each of the last four matches versus Killie. Earlier this season, Rangers won 2-0 against Kilmarnock at Ibrox. Rangers kept clean sheets in their last four games against Killie in all competitions.
Rangers took 16 points from the last six Premiership games. Michael Beale’s team scored 14 goals and allowed six to opponents. Rangers are on a three-game winning streak away from home in the league.
Kilmarnock picked up eight points from the last six games. They were outscored 8-6 across the last six matches in the league. Killie are unbeaten in three straight fixtures at home. The last four games between these teams finished with under 2.5 goals, as Rangers posted wins to nil. That trend could change for the game.
Our betting tips prediction is for a Rangers to win at full-time. A Rangers-to-win selection feels safe going into the game in midweek. Although recent games between the sides were low-scoring, Beale’s team is still a bit of an enigma. A Rangers-to-win selection by safer than a bet on total goals.
Cercle Brugge vs Union St Gilloise
singleSelection
Union St Gilloise are in the Belgium Pro League title fight, as they trail league leaders Genk by seven points ahead of a midweek round of fixtures. Union are on a four-game winning streak in the Pro League.

Union St Gilloise are a perfect six wins from six games against Cercle Brugge in their last six meetings. Earlier this season, Union won 2-1 at home against Cercle. Our betting tips prediction is for the in-form Union St Gilloise to win.
Oostende vs Royal Antwerp
singleSelection
Royal Antwerp were the early frontrunner for the Pro League title. However, the Reds lost a sizeable lead at the top of the table and are now in third place. Just one of Antwerp’s last six games ended as a win, as they picked up six points.
The big spenders cannot find consistency but will home to gain a win over 16th-place Oostende on Wednesday. Oostende are in the relegation zone with one point separating them from safety. The team go into the match on a four-game losing streak, as they picked up a mere three points from the last six Pro League games.
Royal Antwerp won 2-1 against Oostende at home earlier this season. Antwerp are unbeaten in five of their last six games against Oostende in all competitions. Oostende won three of their last six games at home. Antwerp failed to win any of their last six road matches, losing four times.
Our betting tips prediction is for a double chance Oostende win or Royal Antwerp win. A defeat could see Royal manager Mark van Bommel edge closer to the exit.
