Dundee United vs Celtic

The crushing 3-1 defeat to St Mirren in the Scottish League Cup final represented rock bottom that few connected with this institution could have foreseen.

The Dundee club have proved incapable to claim three points in any of their last seven fixtures, and for all Celtic's recent turmoil, the away side still possess more refined ability. We are endorsing the Glasgow brigade to secure a crucial three points.
