Celtic travel to Hibernian in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday hoping to win their sixth away match of the campaign and maintain their unbeaten league record on the road.

Meanwhile, Hibs have the chance to move within two points of their opponents and climb to third in the league table.

We say: Hibernian 1-3 Celtic


With Hibernian struggling to find consistency and with Celtic getting back to full strength, the visitors have the firepower to cause problems for the home side, as they aim the close to gap on Rangers at the top of the Scottish Premiership.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Dundee Utd vs. Hamilton (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Hamilton Academical travel to Dundee United in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday hoping to win their first league game since September and move off the bottom of the table.

Meanwhile, Dundee United are looking to secure three points at Tannadice Park as they aim to cut the seven-point gap between themselves and fourth place.

We say: Dundee United 2-1 Hamilton Academical


Despite the home side's struggles to score goals, the Tangerines have shown at times this campaign that they can convert against weaker opposition. Hamilton are desperate to end their poor run of form and are sure to put up a fight, but that may not be enough to secure any points this weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Kilmarnock vs. Ross County (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Kilmarnock head into their Scottish Premiership encounter with Ross County on Saturday looking to avoid losing three consecutive home games in the Scottish Premiership for the first time since November 2017.

Ross County, meanwhile, are hoping to win their first league match in six and end their dreadful run of form.

We say: Kilmarnock 2-0 Ross County


Ross County have conceded as many goals in the second half of their Scottish Premiership matches this season as Kilmarnock have overall in the competition. Kilmarnock have been struggling for goals of late but should have enough quality in the final third to secure the three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Livingston vs. St Mirren (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Livingston and St Mirren meet at the Almondvale Stadium on Saturday afternoon having both endured lengthy winless streaks in the Scottish Premiership.

While the home side have failed to record a victory in four attempts, the visitors have gone seven games without registering maximum points.

We say: Livingston 1-1 St Mirren


Going by their form before the international break, it is difficult to predict a winner in this contest. Livingston are naturally the favourites due to their home advantage, but we feel that St Mirren will battle their way to a low-scoring draw.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

St Johnstone vs. Motherwell (Saturday, 3.00pm)

St Johnstone head into their clash with Motherwell on Saturday looking to claim their fifth Scottish Premiership victory and win back-to-back league matches for the first time this campaign.

Motherwell, meanwhile, are also looking for their fifth top flight victory, which would be their third away league win in a row.

We say: St Johnstone 1-1 Motherwell


The last nine meetings have all seen a result for one team or the other, however with both performing well in recent weeks, St Johnstone and Motherwell may have to settle for just a point each in this weekend's meeting at McDiarmid Park.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.
