Celtic vs Livingston

, KO: 15:00 Oct 30, 2021, Celtic Park
Livingston

CELTIC will be looking to build on an impressive five-match winning streak when they welcome Livingston to Parkhead on Saturday afternoon.

The Ange Postecoglou project is still in its relative infancy but the Hoops appear to be hitting top gear under the stewardship of the former Socceroos chief.

The Bhoys have now won five on the bounce after blowing Hibs away in the first-half at Easter Road on Wednesday, on a night where my recommended Bet Builder banked.

Albeit temporarily, a sixth win on the spin against Livingston on Saturday will move Celtic to the top of the Scottish Premiership standings.

After stuttering through the opening stretch of the season, Livi appear to have turned the corner following back-to-back away wins at St Johnstone and Ross Country.

David Martindale's 10-man side have since shown great spirit to battle to a 1-1 draw with Dundee United in midweek, meaning the Lions arrive in Glasgow in the midst of a three-match unbeaten run.

Outright Betting

After losing 1-0 at Livingston earlier in the season, Celtic are red-hot favourites to exact revenge on Saturday, with a home win heavily fancied at 1/5 with SBK.

Livingston have triumphed in each of their last two top-flight road trips but the Lions' are rank outsiders here at a whopping 17/1 with SBK while the draw is also deemed unlikely at 31/5 (SBK) with the same firm.

Betting Angles

Both of my Celtic Park selections landed last Saturday and I'm going to support a similar formula when Ange Postecoglou's free-scoring side return to their Parkhead base this weekend.

Combining Celtic to win, over one Celtic goal and over five Celtic corners will bring about a 9/10 (UniBet) Bet Builder that holds plenty of appeal.

Celtic boast an almost perfect domestic record on home turf this term, tabling six triumphs from seven, with the only blot on the Bhoys copybook being a draw with surprise package Dundee United.

That solitary setback aside, Postecoglou's new-look side have been simply untouchable at Celtic Park, with the hosts repeatedly swatting their Scottish opponents aside with a seemingly endless supply of goals.

In fact, the Hoops have struck 24 times during that sample of games so I'm more than happy to back a resurgent Celtic side to notch up a couple of goals against Livingston on Saturday.

The Lions never go down without a fight, but they have leaked two or more goals in five of their last seven away matches in all competitions and they could suffer a similar fate in Glasgow's east end this weekend.

Given that the high-octane Hoops are averaging 8.36 corners per-game this season, I'll complete the Bet Builder with over five Celtic corners.

Postecoglou's forward-thinking outfit have hit the 6+ flagkick line in each of their 11 league games thus far and it's also worth noting that the aforementioned combination has clicked in each of Celtic's last five victories.

With Celtic expected to dominate the ball for long stages at Celtic Park on Saturday, I'll also have small play on Livingston to receive three or more cards during this contest at 31/20 with UniBet.

The West Lothian guests have racked up a minimum of three bookings in five of their six Scottish Premiership road trips this term and Martindale's men may look to deploy the dark arts here in an attempt to thwart the division's deadliest attack.
