- 凯尔特人队在过去26场对阵邓迪联队的比赛中赢了20场
- 橘子队在最近六场主场对阵凯尔特人的比赛中，有四场以2比0、9比0、3比0和3比0的比分失利
- 布兰登·罗杰斯；本赛季，在英超联赛的八场客场比赛中，有六场比赛的比分为-1
罗杰斯首次前往坦纳迪斯
周日下午，邓迪联队将在坦纳迪斯公园迎战联赛领头羊凯尔特人队，届时他们将面临严峻的考验。
这将是Brendan Rodgers第一次执教一支球队对抗橘子队，但他知道篮球队在历史上一直主导着这场比赛，在双方最近26次交锋中赢了20场，在这段时间里只输了一场。
Tannadice队本赛季能够定期找到网后防线，但上周末一条漏洞百出的后防线让他们付出了代价；4比3输给马瑟韦尔。
凯尔特人可以利用橘子’；防守失误
凯尔特人队有心情利用狡猾的防守，上周末对阵流浪者队的比赛中他们进了三球；苏格兰联赛杯决赛在汉普顿举行，前一周在主场又有三场对阵希伯尼安。
本赛季，博伊斯队在75%的客场比赛中保持了零失球，平均每场客场仅丢0.26球，但考虑到橘子队在主场的强大实力，很难建议凯尔特人队在这里取得零胜。
Jim Goodwin；中国队在八场主场英超比赛中有七场进球，其中五场多投。凯尔特人仍然可以在这场比赛中取得足够的进球来弥补-1的差点，他们在本赛季八场客场联赛中的六场比赛中都做到了这一点，3-1的结果是首选的正确得分。
- Celtic have won 20 of their last 26 meetings with Dundee United
- The Tangerines have lost by scores of 2-0, 9-0, 3-0 and 3-0 in four of their last six home games against Celtic
- Brendan Rodgers’ side have covered a -1 handicap in six of their eight away Premiership matches this term
Rodgers heads to Tannadice for first time
Dundee United will face a stern test when they host league leaders Celtic at Tannadice Park on Sunday afternoon.
It will be the first time Brendan Rodgers has managed a team against the Tangerines but he will know that the Hoops have dominated this fixture historically, winning 20 of the last 26 meetings between the sides and losing only once in that span.
The Tannadice outfit have been able to find the back of the net on a regular basis this season, but a leaky backline cost them in last weekend’s 4-3 defeat to Motherwell.
Celtic can exploit Tangerines’ defensive lapses
Celtic are in the sort of mood to exploit dodgy defences, having scored three against Rangers in last weekend’s Scottish League Cup Final at Hampden and another three at home to Hibernian the week before.
The Bhoys have kept clean sheets in 75% of their away games this season, conceding an average of just 0.26 goals per match on the road, but it is difficult to recommend a Celtic win to nil here given how potent the Tangerines have been at home.
Jim Goodwin’s side have scored in seven of their eight home Premiership games and managed multiple strikes in five of them. Celtic can still rack up enough goals in this clash to cover the -1 handicap, which they have done in six of their eight away league games this term and a 3-1 result is the preferred correct score play.
