Dundee v Celtic
📅
Kick Off: Tuesday 14th January at 20:00
🏆
Competition: Scottish Premiership
📺
Watch Live: Sky Sports Main Event
Dundee will welcome Celtic to Dens Park in the Scottish Premiership on Tuesday night. Tony Docherty’s team earned a well-deserved 1-1 draw against Rangers last week.
As for Celtic, they remain 15 points clear at the top of the table following a 4-1 win away at Ross County on Saturday.
⭐ Dundee v Celtic Best Bets
Kyogo Furuhashi helped himself to a brace during Celtic’s 4-1 win over Ross County on Saturday. As such, the Hoops hitman is now the joint-top goalscorer in the Scottish Premiership this season with 10 goals to his name.
Furuhashi has scored 6 times across his previous 7 appearances against Dundee. He looks well-placed to add to that tally given that the hosts have kept just 1 clean sheet in 22 league games this season.
👕 Dundee v Celtic Predicted XI
🔍 Dundee v Celtic Players to Watch
🔵 Simon Murray
Simon Murray is a handful and should cause Celtic a few problems on Tuesday night. The experienced striker has hit the back of the net 4 times across his last 4 Scottish Premiership appearances.
Murray’s hard-working displays can be attributed to the fact that he is drawing an average of 1.32 fouls per game in the top flight this term. The Dundee ace’s all-action style has also seen him pick up 6 yellow cards this season.
⚪ Nicolas Kuhn
Nicolas Kuhn has been Celtic’s standout performer this season so far. The German winger has scored no fewer than 16 times across his 27 appearances in all competitions this season. That return is made all the more impressive by the fact that Kuhn has also provided 11 assists.
The Celtic star is averaging 2.29 shots per game in the Scottish Premiership this season, while his shots on target average reads 1.12 per 90.

💻 Dundee v Celtic Form and Tactics
Dundee have lost just 1 of their last 4 Scottish Premiership matches. The Dark Blues fully merited their 1-1 draw with Rangers at Dens Park last Thursday night. Tony Docherty’s team won the xG battle 0.99 to 0.65, registering 12 shots on goal, 2 of which hit the target.
During last week’s draw with Rangers, Dundee were more than happy to surrender possession and pounce on the counter-attack where possible. That is evidenced by the fact that Rangers enjoyed a sizeable 77% possession at Dens Park. Expect to see a similar game play out when Dundee go up against Celtic in their latest home match.
While Dundee are averaging 2.00 cards per game in the Scottish Premiership this season, they weren’t shown a single card during last week’s stalemate with Rangers. Furthermore, the Dark Blues collected just 1 booking during their recent home game with arch-rivals Dundee United.

Celtic continued their march towards yet another Scottish Premiership title with an emphatic 4-1 success at Ross County on Saturday. Brendan Rodgers’ side produced a monstrous xG output of 4.34 against County, laying siege to their opponents’ goal with 27 shots, including 13 on-target efforts.
The Glasgow giants are averaging a league-high 9.41 corners per game in the Scottish Premiership this season, though they fell slightly below that figure last time out by earning 7 flag-kicks.
Celtic have been the Scottish Premiership’s best-behaved side this season by quite some distance. The Bhoys are receiving an average of just 1.05 bookings per 90 and are the only team in the top-flight that have not been shown a red card this term to date. It’s also worth noting that Rodgers’ side have not gone into the referee’s notebook at all in each of their last 3 Scottish Premiership matches.
