💭 Prediction

In our opinion, Hibernian have enough to get a goal against this Celtic team, but a single goal might not quite be as many as the goals that they could concede.

Therefore, we’re predicting a close game with a 1-2 winning margin for Celtic when all is said and done. We are expecting it to be pretty even.
