Celtic looking to beat St. Johnstone for the second time in a week in Saturday's early kick off

Celtic beat St. Johnstone on Wednesday night in the CIS Cup and renew acquaintances with the Perthshire side on Saturday afternoon, with a win needed from Neil Lennon’s side to try to put pressure on rivals Rangers at the top of the SPL table.

Celtic are 4/9 with BetFred to claim all three points and landed identical odds on Wednesday, so must be fancied to do the same today. Anthony Stokes scored a brace, including the opener during the week and he will fancy his chances of once again unlocking the Saints defence. The former Hibs striker can be backed at 9/2 with Totesport to break the deadlock and that price looks more than reasonable.

One thing that may put punters off from steaming in on Celtic is the way they allowed the home side to come back into the game on Wednesday, allowing a 3-0 lead to slip to 3-2, causing a nervous finish to the game. If you fancy the home side to carry their second half form into Saturday’s match, they can be backed at 15/2 with Paddy Power to win, or 18/5 at Victor Chandler to draw with Celtic.

On Wednesday we recommended backing St. Johnstone, when given a 1.5 goal start, which produced a win and SportingBet have a similar proposition this weekend, offering 7/10 that the home side can beat the Hoops when given a two goal start on the European Handicap. 

Given that Celtic have now played five matches on the road this season and won each by one goal, that is again a  good bet, although it might be worth trying the Hoops to win by exactly one, at a generous 11/4 at Ladbrokes.

Recommendation

Winning Margin – Celtic to win by 1 Goal (11/4, Ladbrokes
