Celtic Preview – Can Celtic play catch-up?
Celtic find themselves a massive 16 points adrift of the Scottish Premiership league leaders and fierce rivals, Rangers, heading into this set of midweek fixtures in the domestic top flight but the hosts bring a five-match unbeaten sequence into this clash against Ross County and know they must keep winning.
The Hoops recorded a 2-0 home win over Kilmarnock last week and Celtic will be hoping for more of the same on Wednesday night at Celtic Park where they’ve lost just once in their last 11 matches (v Rangers).
Celtic have won nine of these last 11 matches at home though with eight of these 11 being also wins with over 2.5 goals scored while their record against Ross County in the Premiership is a strong one as they’ve won the last five encounters with each game also resulting in over 2.5 goals too.
Ross County Preview – Can Ross Co stop the rot?
If a trip to Celtic Park wasn’t already daunting enough, Ross County face a mountain to climb as they head to Glasgow sitting bottom of the Scottish Premiership along with having failed to win any of their last 10 matches overall.
Within these last 10 matches, Ross County have been handed no fewer than eight losses and it’s perhaps no surprise that the visitors sit bottom of the Premiership with just three wins under their belt so far this season.
Ross County have picked up two of these three wins on their travels this term with victories at Hamilton Academical and St Johnstone, but six defeats have well and truly swamped their meagre success in addition to losing their last five away matches on the trot, with three of these five losses also seeing over 2.5 goals.
