Celtic FC v Rangers FC - Cinch Scottish Premiership
Celtic FC will face St. Mirren on Sunday

St. Mirren will welcome Celtic to the SMISA Stadium for a matchday eight fixture in the Scottish Premiership on Sunday.

The hosts have not been in action since they fell to a 3-0 defeat away to St. Johnstone a fortnight ago. Nicholas Clark opened the scoring for the hosts in the 26th minute, while Graham Carey rounded up proceedings with four minutes to go.

Celtic settled for a share of the spoils in a 1-1 draw away to Shakhtar Donetsk in the UEFA Champions League. Both goals came in the opening half-hour, with Artem Bondarenko's unfortunate own goal putting the visitors ahead, while Mykhailo Mudryk drew the hosts level in the 29th minute.

The Scottish champions will turn their focus to try and maintain their 100% start to the season, which has put them five points clear at the summit of the table. St. Mirren sit in sixth spot on nine points.

St. Mirren vs Celtic Prediction

St. Mirren are overwhelming underdogs and, barring an unlikely upset, could be on the end of a whitewash in front of their fans.

Celtic have been in rampant form domestically, having won all six of their matches so far. The Bhoys have failed to win consecutive matches on the continent and will relish a return to domestic action. We are backing the capital side to secure a comfortable win.

Prediction: St. Mirren 0-4 Celtic
