Hearts lost completely at the last meeting against Celtic last year, is scheduled to meet again on match day 28 SPFL. This time they acted as hosts at the Tynecastle Stadium.

Hearts arrived at Celtic’s headquarters on match day 12 just to flush 5 goals without reply. The match did run side-by-side where the hosts controlled up to 63% possession and produced 10 kicks right into the goal, which was only replied once by the visitors.

Until today Celtic managed to maintain their appearance so they controlled the top of the standings with a distance of 8 points. Sunday (24/2) then they also just beat Motherwell with a score of 4-1 through goals from Scott Sinclair, Oliver Burke, and 2 goals by Odsonne Edouard.

From the side of the host, Hearts was even sluggish before tomorrow’s clash with 1 victory, 2 draws and 1 defeat. The note they received after giving up 2-1 at home to Motherwell, then Saturday (23/2) yesterday was held 1-1 by St Mirren at Tynecastle. This inconsistent graph also made the team stuck in the top 5.

Celtic’s goal party last November saw them score eight goals without conceding only in the last 2 matches to meet Hearts, which began with a score of 0-3 at Tynecastle. There is no reason to appear sluggish on tomorrow’s visit, even though the hosts have a longer pause to appear in the next match.

Our Prediction: 2

Odds: 1.57
