A quick peek at the Premiership table imply an advantage to Celtic when they come to Dundee. However; let's play the game before we award the win!
- Dundee have the most conceded goals (23) in Premiership
- Celtic have the most scored goals (26) in Premiership
Celtic could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Europa League game only three sleeps ago. That game, against Ferencvaros, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Celtic.
Dundee form and stats
Dundee's results here at Kilmac Stadium at Dens Park in the Premiership have been very modest with 1 victory, 3 draws and 2 defeats.
Happy days for Dundee in their previous game, a Premiership match away at St. Mirren (placed 8th) that ended with a 1-0 victory. Dundee goalkeeper Adam Legzdins did an outstanding job against St. Mirren with seven saves, so vital to securing the victory. The goalie Adam Legzdins was named most valuable player of the team in that game, scoring 8.5 out of ten. Legzdins stopped the opponent with seven saves and topped it up with a clean sheet.
Preceding that match was a defeat to Ross County (0-5).Despite playing at their own arena the home team are massive underdogs in this game. The home fans will enjoy their drinks and snacks knowing that the chances of a positive outcome are very slim. When Dundee have been in this position before, they have won zero, drawn zero and lost one from one game. zero defeats by at least two goals.
Dundee has scored 6 league goals at home this season, in 6 matches. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 11 goals have been conceded.
Celtic form and stats
The story so far for the visiting team, who have the most scored goals (26) in Premiership, on their Premiership travels is 3 wins, 0 draws and 3 defeats. Celtic have won three away matches in a row now and will not be intimidated by being the visitors in this fixture.
Celtic play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 3-2 victory visiting Ferencvaros. The attacker Kyogo Furuhashi got a match rating of 8.43 in that game. Furuhashi scored one goal, served one assist, hit two key passes and dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times.
A draw for Celtic before that, at their own venue hosting Livingston (0-0).As mentioned earlier, Celtic will not be satisfied unless they get a comfortable victory in this game. Performing as huge favourites away from home has earlier resulted in eight wins (five by two or more goals winning margin), two draws and one surprising defeat.
Celtic find the net regularly in their away games. 8 goals from 6 away fixtures in the league. Celtic have conceded 6 goals in these away matches.
Head 2 Head
These opponents have fought before this season: Celtic - Dundee 6-0. Last ten meetings with these sides: Dundee won zero, Celtic triumphed in nine and we saw one draw. six games with over 2,5 goals, four matches with two goals or less.Top Goalscorers
