Top of the table clash in Scotland as Celtic welcome league leaders Kilmarnock to Celtic Park.

Celtic are the current champions of Scotland and are without doubt the best side in the country. Only Rangers really come close but potential new rivals are emerging in Kilmarnock. Since Steve Clarke took over the Ayrshire club have really improved and their success from last season has carried on into this, which shows as they are the current league leaders.

Recent fixtures between these 2 teams have been close encounters with the Bhoys not having everything their own way. The likelyhood is that Celtic will win this game but Kilmarnock are a well organised side now and they are actually unbeaten against Celtic in the 4 encounters since Steve Clarke took over at Kilmarnock, winning 2 and drawing the others.

Both sides played mid-week with Kilmarnock claiming a routine home win over Livingston while Celtic struggled to a 1-1 draw away to Motherwell.

Celtic are waaaay too short a price here which offers great value on Kilmarnock. Even backing a Kilmarnock win with a small stake at the crazy price on offer wouldn't be a terrible idea.
