Celtic vs Hibernian Result & Analysis

Celtic’s recent 2-game winning streak and a 3-0 triumph over Aberdeen set a clear tone, while Hibernian’s return from a win against Dundee gives them a modest lift. The model rates a home win as the most likely outcome, reflecting Celtic’s dominant 2.62 goals per game at home against weaker opposition and their negligible 0.15 goals conceded. Hibernian, on the road, averages only a goal per match and concedes twice as many against stronger teams, making a Celtic victory the obvious favourite. The predicted result is a 1-0 scoreline, with a 17.1% chance, and an overall expected total of 2.3 goals, centring on a 2-goal total that carries a 28% probability. Celtic’s home win probability sits at 67%, the draw at 24%, and the away win at 9%. Suggested picks include Under 5.5 cards at 81.8%, Under 3.5 goals at 80.3%, Over 19.5 fouls at 76.0%, Over 8.5 corners at 75.1%, Over 2.5 cards at 72.8%, and Under 25.5 fouls at 71.1%. Each selection carries its own probability, with no overlap in outcomes.
