This fixture presents an extreme domestic mismatch across league standings, venue splits, and current form.
This fixture presents an extreme domestic mismatch across league standings, venue splits, and current form. Celtic lead the Premiership with eight wins from nine matches, including a perfect four wins from four away games with ten goals scored and two conceded. Conversely, Hibernian sit twelfth and remain winless at home with four losses and one draw in five fixtures, conceding at an average of 1.8 goals per home match. Head-to-head history also heavily favours Celtic, who have won seven of the last ten meetings between the clubs. Even with multiple squad absences noted for the visitors, the substantial gulf in performance and Celtic's potency in front of goal make an away victory the most probable outcome.
