Game Preview
Celtic lost only one game in the last ten, which was in Dortmund against Borussia, 7-1. That’s their only defeat in the most prominent continental competition, and that’s why they sit way up high in the UEFA Champions League standings.
The Hoops scored two or more goals in six of the previous seven games and have four clean sheets in a row. This includes the one against Atalanta in Bergamo, which ended without goals. That was a big success for the Scottish powerhouse.

Leipzig is in a terrible spot. They have all three defeats in the UEFA Champions League and lost the most recent Bundesliga event. It was a derby against Borussia, which ended 2-1 for the hosts from Dortmund.
The Bulls are one of the most unpredictable teams when it comes to betting on football. Yet recently, they have followed a pattern that includes high efficiency in their matches. The last three were with both teams netting and over 2.5 hits.
Celtic vs. RB Leipzig Head to Head
Even though RB is a young team, it has already played four times with Celtic. In 2018, they met in the Europa League, with the Hoops winning both matches. Four years later, the tables have turned, as RB won both UCL clashes, 3-1 at home and 0-2 on the road.
Celtic vs. RB Leipzig Prediction
With the Hoops being highly aggressive at home, we think this event should bring at least three goals. Leipzig will score as well; we are positive about that due to their fantastic counterattacks and fast transitions. After all, they regularly show that in away games, especially against teams with similar qualities. Celtic has to go for all three points, so all this should deliver goals on both ends and over 2.5 hits.
