Celtic vs Aberdeen Prediction and Betting Tips | November 12th 2023

Celtic lock horns with Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership First Phase on Sunday.

The Bhoys are atop the standings with 32 points from 12 games, winning 10. The league leaders are eight ahead of second-placed Rangers, who are eight points behind but have a game in hand.

However, Brendan Rodgers' side are coming off a 6-0 hiding at La Liga giants Atletico Madrid in midweek in the UEFA Champions League. That was Celtic's heaviest defeat across competitions since losing 7-1 to PSG in the Champions League in 2017.

Nevertheless, the Celtics return to action in the Premiership, where they have made an unbeaten start. They have won their last two games since a goalless draw at Hibernian last month.

Meanwhile, Aberdeen are seventh in the points table with just 12 points from 10 games. However, they're coming off a 2-2 draw at PAOK Salonika in the UEFA Europa Conference League. The Dons are unbeaten in three games across all competitions - including their last league outing: a 4-2 win at Motherwell.

On that note, here's a look at Celtic's head-to-head record with Aberdeen and key numbers, prediction and betting tips:

Celtic might be coming off a heavy defeat in Europe but are unbeaten in the league this season. They also have a dominant head-to-head record against Aberdeen.

Meanwhile, the visitors have fared decently across competitions this season, reaching the Scottish League Cup final, despite their patchy form in the league. However, their lopsided record against Celtic doesn't inspire much confidence,

We expect the trend to continue with a win for Brendan Rodgers' side as they seek a return to winning ways in familiar surroundings.
