We said: Celtic 2-1 Aberdeen

 Both teams have enjoyed phenomenal starts to the 2024-25 season and we expect this game to be an incredibly hard-fought clash between two sides aiming to extend their unbeaten start in the Scottish Premiership. Celtic have not lost in this fixture since May 2018, and with them boasting the home advantage, we expect they will extend that streak with a narrow win here. Read more.
