Betting prediction was written by Anton

After an excellent 2011-2012 season where they finished in 4^th place in the SPL St Johnstone have had a very poor start to this season.  They are yet to win a game in 5 attempts and sit bottom of the league on two points.

Celtic has had a poor start to the season by their very high standards, winning just 2 of their 4 league games so far.  They beat Aberdeen 1-0 on the opening day of the season and had an excellent 4-2 win in Inverness, but draws against Ross County and Hibernian will disappoint the fans. 

Celtic can be given some leeway with their league form as it came at the same time as hugely important Champions League Qualification matches where they impressively won all 4 games, home and away.

1x2 Bets

Celtic are strong favourites for this game, as they will be for every SPL game this year, they are best priced for the win at 1.5 with William Hill.  The draw is 4.6 with Pinnacle and a St Johnstone win a huge 8.5 with Paddy Power.

Celtic are the quality team in the league this year and should have enough to beat all teams.  Their recent dropping of points has been between midweek European games which led to them resting players and also a substantial injury list.  With a free week for players to recover Celtic should be fit and ready to win this game.

Asian Handicap

Celtic are expected to win comfortably according to the Asian market.  The handicap is set at Celtic -1.25 @ 2.05 with 188bet and St Johnstone +1.25 @ 1.91 with Pinnacle.

Celtic have managed 4 multiple goal victories in their 8 games so far this season including European Games.

Total Goals

The 2.5 Goal line is exactly correct according to the markets with both the over and under set at 1.96.

St Johnstone has only had 2 games of their 5 games finish over, and Celtic have had 2 of their 4 league games also.
