The Scottish Premiership match between Celtic and Dundee will take place at Celtic Park on Thursday at 1:15 am IST.
Celtic will welcome Dundee on Wednesday, and they’re currently two points behind Rangers in the Scottish Premiership. Dundee is heading to Glasgow hoping not to lose, which would secure their spot in the top six of the league.
Despite perceptions that Brendan Rodgers is underperforming at Celtic, the team has been unbeaten in 11 games, winning nine of them, though some victories came from late goals. In their recent match against Motherwell, they were losing at half-time but scored twice in added time to win 3-1. These late heroics have kept them close to Rangers in the standings, but Rangers have been more convincing overall. While Celtic usually performs well at home, they have dropped points in two of their last five league games at Celtic Park.
Dundee has had an inconsistent season, never managing to win more than two games in a row. Despite victories against St Johnstone and Ross County, their hopes of breaking this streak were dashed when they faced Hibernian. They managed to equalize with 12 minutes remaining but then conceded another goal, losing 2-1. Now, they face Celtic in Glasgow, having already lost to them twice earlier in the season, including a 3-0 defeat on Boxing Day.
Celtic probable starting lineup: Hart, Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Taylor, O’Riley, Iwata, McGregor, Yang, Idah, Maeda
Dundee probable starting lineup: Carson, McGhee, Shaughnessy, Donnelly, Beck, Cameron, Sylla, McCowan, Main, Mellon, Tiffoney
