Celtic vs Manchester City Predictions

 

My first Celtic vs Manchester City prediction is going to be Manchester City to win and Both Teams to Score. Celtic have scored plenty of goals in their league matches this season, and have just put six past Kilmarnock, and while Manchester City are far superior to their domestic opposition, the return of Leigh Griffiths will be a welcome boost to the hoops, as well as the fantastic support the team get in European football. City should have enough to win still, and William Hill’s odds are 17/10 for City to win and BTTS.

My second Celtic vs Man City betting tip is going to be a penalty to be awarded in the game. Both teams have enough tricky and pacey players to worry their opposition defences, Celtic have Scott Sinclair and Moussa Dembele while Man City have Raheem Sterling and Nolito who can pose a threat cutting into the box. Paddy Power are offering 21/10 for a penalty to be awarded, so you there isn’t even a worry on whether it ends up being converted or not.

First Goalscorer Tips

My final Celtic vs Manchester City prediction this week is going to be Sergio Aguero to score first. It’s hard to not have him tipped for first goalscorer after the start he’s had to the season, after his ban he scored twice against Swansea and looks raring to go. The best odds for Aguero to score first against Celtic are 13/5 with Bet Victor.

Celtic vs Man City Team News

Celtic – No fresh injury worries as Leigh Griffiths returns from injury, as well as Patrick Roberts and Kolo Toure pushing to start in this match. James Forrest has returned recently from injury and after scoring against Kilmarnock will hope to have done enough to start.

Manchester City – Nolito may be brought into the starting line up as he is still banned domestically for his sending off in the league. Vincent Kompany remains out after his brief return.

 

Celtic vs Manchester City Betting Odds

If you’re confident Celtic can end City’s impressive 10 game win streak you bet on their odds of 17/2 with Bet365 to beta Man City which are generous odds but they do seem to be facing the impossible. A more likely shock result if there is one would be a draw, which is available at 5/1 with Paddy Power, and for the difference in odds, I’d much prefer to go for this. City are only 4/11 at best with Paddy Power, so unless throwing into an accumulator, they’re far too short for a single bet.

 

If you fancy City to win 3-1 which seems my pick of the correct scores you can get a tasty 10/1 with William Hill, and given Celtic’s shaky defence this scoreline could be very possible.

 

David Silva seems to be due a goal, and with Kevin De Bruyne out the creativity lies on his shoulders, so I expect to see him in and around the edge of Celtic’s box regularly, he’s 8/1 first goal with Bet365, or if you’d prefer him anytime you can get 5/2 with Betfred.
