Only two points separate the traditional top dogs of Scottish football, with both teams having played 23 league matches.

Both Teams to Score - No

You might instinctively think that a meeting of the best two teams in the Scottish Premiership will guarantee goals, but recent history suggests otherwise. In the last 12 league meetings dating back to 29th April 2018, a Both Teams to Score bet would only have come in on four occasions.

For that reason, we're going the other way with a Both Teams to Score (No) pick - an outcome which, of course, played out on the other eight occasions, as well as in the most recent Cup meeting between the two sides – Rangers’ 2-0 FA Cup win on 18th April 2021.

Under 5.5 Cards

No teams in this year's Scottish Premiership have collected fewer yellow cards than Celtic (26), with Rangers next on the 'nice list' (equal with St. Mirren) albeit with almost 50% more yellows on 37.

Yes, there's a huge rivalry at play here and it's a huge match as Celtic can leapfrog their Glaswegian rivals with a win, but under 5.5 total cards seems good value given the disciplinary record of both sides - particularly tonight's hosts, whose average only just tops a single yellow per match.

Tavernier Yellow Card

Yellow card magnet Alfredo Morelos is currently on international duty with Colombia, but the next most likely Rangers recipient could well be right-back James Tavernier, who has collected five yellows in 21 league appearances this season.

Connor Goldson is a shorter price in the market but has the same number of yellows in one more appearance, while Tavernier has made - on average - more fouls per match according to defensive data from WhoScored.com (1 to Goldson’s 0.6).

No Celtic players have received more than three yellow cards in David Turnbull and Nir Bitton – neither of whom are projected to start according to the probable line-up from WhoScored.com.
