The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Wednesday's Scottish Premiership clash between Aberdeen and Celtic, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Aberdeen 0-3 Celtic

Aberdeen have been in poor form as of late, and a fixture against the league leaders is not the easiest of games to take on next after failing to win within the division this year. Celtic will be hoping to continue their impressive performances on Wednesday, with the Hoops heading into the game on the back of 15 without a loss, they should be set to extend that. Read more.
