Wednesday's Scottish Premiership predictions including Celtic, Rangers

Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Wednesday's Scottish Premiership fixtures, including both Celtic and Rangers in action.

Rangers head into their Scottish Premiership encounter with St Johnstone on Wednesday night hoping to secure their eighth away victory in the league and move further ahead of rivals Celtic at the top of the table.

Meanwhile, St Johnstone are hoping to get back to winning ways after suffering successive league defeats against Livingston and St Mirren.

We say: St Johnstone 1-3 Rangers


Rangers have conceded in each of their last three matches, while St Johnstone have scored in all of their last eight games in all competitions. The hosts will be keen to get back to winning ways, but the Gers should be strong enough to secure another three points in the Scottish Premiership.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Hibernian vs. St Mirren (Wednesday, 6.00pm)

Hibernian host St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership on Wednesday night hoping to bounce back from last weekend's disappointing 1-1 draw with Dundee United.

Meanwhile, the Saints came out on top against St Johnstone last Saturday to secure their second 3-2 victory in as many matches.

We say: Hibernian 2-1 St Mirren


Both teams have strung together impressive runs of form but at least one of these sides is to drop points on Wednesday. Despite Hibernian winning only two of their eight home matches this season, we expect Jack Ross's side to edge out St Mirren in what could be a tight contest at Easter Road.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Hamilton vs. Livingston (Wednesday, 6.00pm)

Hamilton Academical entertain Livingston in the Scottish Premiership in what will be David Martindale's first game in charge of the Lions.

A trip to face an in-form Accies side is a tough start for the new boss, but both sides will be targeting the three points on Wednesday night.

We say: Hamilton Academical 1-2 Livingston


Both teams enter this intriguing clash on the back of good results, and confidence will be high on either side. Hamilton may have the home advantage for this one, but they struggle to keep clean sheets, and the bounce of a new manager could see Livingston over the line.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Celtic vs. Ross County (Wednesday, 6.00pm)

Celtic head into their Scottish Premiership encounter with Ross County on Wednesday night hoping that a win will be the start of a much-needed run of form if they are to close the 16-point gap to rivals Rangers at the top of the table.

Ross County, meanwhile, face the dawn of a new era following the sacking of Stuart Kettlewell last weekend and the appointment of a new head coach.

We say: Celtic 3-0 Ross County


Both sides are eager to win this Scottish Premiership encounter for different reasons. The Staggies are looking to move off the bottom of the table, while Celtic are desperate to close the colossal gap between themselves and rivals Rangers. The Hoops may have lost to Ross County last time out in the Scottish League Cup but should be strong enough to secure three points on Wednesday night.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Motherwell vs. Aberdeen (Wednesday, 6.15pm)

Aberdeen travel to Motherwell in the Scottish Premiership on Wednesday night hoping to build on victories in their last two league games and close in on the top two.

Meanwhile, Motherwell have failed to win any of their previous six matches in all competitions, losing their last four in a row.

We say: Motherwell 1-2 Aberdeen


Only once in the last 12 meetings between the two sides have both teams scored in the same game but with the Steelmen and Dons likely to play with attacking lineups, we could see a few goals on Wednesday night. Motherwell are keen to end their poor run of form, but Aberdeen should have enough quality in the final third to break down a leaky Steelmen backline.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Dundee Utd vs. Kilmarnock (Wednesday, 6.30pm)

Dundee United host Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership on Wednesday night as both sides look to end a poor run of form.

Micky Mellon's men have only won one of their last six matches, but Killie's recent woes will give them hope of turning their fortunes around.

We say: Dundee United 1-1 Kilmarnock


This will be a game both sides are targeting to pick up three points in, but in reality neither side would complain too much if they come away with a share of the spoils. It will be a game of few chances, and one nobody will want to lose, meaning they could end up cancelling each other out.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.
