The top two sides in the Scottish Premiership table are set to come face to face in a blockbuster showdown on Saturday when first-placed Celtic host second-placed Aberdeen at Celtic Park.
Both teams are joint at the top of the standings with 21 points after seven fixtures, with the hosts edging out the visitors thanks to a superior goal difference.
We say: 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.

Two sides aiming to end winless streaks come together on Saturday when 11th-placed St Johnstone host seventh-placed Ross County at McDiarmid Park in the Scottish Premiership.
The hosts are on a seven-game winless streak heading into this game, while the visitors are coming into this match without a win in their last three outings.
We say: St Johnstone 0-2 Ross County
Although Ross County's form has declined compared to their early-season results, they are the favourites heading into this match due to St Johnstone's dismal record in recent outings, including six losses in their last seven games, leading us to believe the visitors will secure the victory.
