Hibernian – Celtic

Match analysis

Hibernian host Celtic in what promises to be a stark contrast of form, with the Edinburgh side sitting 32nd on 8 points after two wins, two draws and two defeats, edging a 8‑7 goal tally, while the Glasgow giants sit atop the table on 18 points, having won all six of their games and boasting a 14‑3 goal difference. The gap of ten points and a flawless record for Celtic underscores the challenge for a Hibernian side desperate to climb out of the relegation zone. Historically, the two clubs have often met in high‑stakes encounters, but Celtic’s current dominance suggests they will enter Easter Road as clear favourites. Hibernian will need to overturn their modest goal output and tighten up defensively if they hope to dent Celtic’s unbeaten run.
