Almaty – Celtic Tip Champions League, Qualification, Playoffs, Second Leg on Tuesday, 08/26/25 at 6:45 p.m.
Celtic won’t do it after all? In fact, last week, no betting provider seriously expected the Scots not to win comfortably at home. But now, after the 0-0 draw, the situation is extremely precarious!
In my Almaty Celtic prediction, I am no longer ruling out the impossible. It would be a big surprise, of course, but it wouldn’t be the first time that the Kazakhs have beaten a stronger opponent at home.
As an alternative to my suggestion, I’ll also show you some other exciting scenarios for promising soccer bets that can be derived from the course of the first leg and the general statistics surrounding this match.
My Almaty Celtic tip: Double chance 1X
These are the arguments for my tip:
- Almaty has lost only 2 competitive games at home in 2025!
- Celtic had an xG value of only 0.56 last week!
- Celtic plays Rangers in the league on Sunday!
Almaty vs. Celtic AI predictions:
ChatGPT is bold—and I like that. As part of its Almaty Celtic AI prediction, it makes the daring suggestion that Almaty will win at odds of around 5.25.
Why not? After all, the Kazakhs recently beat Slovan Bratislava at home, a club that participated in the Champions League group stage last season. What’s more, they have lost only two games at Almaty Central Stadium in the 2025 calendar year.
Predicted chance of winning:
| Kairat Almaty to win |
Draw |
Celtic to win |
| 20.8% |
24.4% |
54.8% |
“Under 2.5” at odds of around 2.20 also appeals to me as a suggestion. Especially since both teams combined for an xG value of just 1.11 last week. Another goalless draw cannot be ruled out.
The Asian handicaps, which are popular on the Bet365 app, are also taken into account by ChatGPT. The AI suggestion that I really like is “Kairat Almaty +1.0” at odds of around 1.75.
What you need to consider when betting on Almaty vs. Celtic
- Celtic has conceded only one goal in its last five competitive games.
- Both clubs had a collective xG value of only 1.11 in the first leg.
- Celtic’s record against Kazakh clubs is slightly positive: 3 wins, 2 draws, 2 losses.
- Note: Celtic has not won any of its last 12 European away games.
