Celtic – FC Dundee Tip Premiership, Matchday 1 on Monday, 03/08/26 at 20:30 CET
Everywhere, European professional football is waking up from its summer nap. So now it starts in the Scottish Premiership. On Matchday 1, defending champions Celtic Glasgow will face Dundee FC and want to underpin their supremacy right at the start of the season.
And in my Celtic FC Dundee tip, I leave no doubt about Glasgow’s role as favourites. This is primarily due to Dundee’s away performances last season. In 2025/26, they could only win 2 of 19 away games. Accordingly, it will not be easy for the champions at the start.
“Win Glasgow with handicap -1” at odds of around 1.52 at Betano Germany also fits because Celtic have not lost a competitive match since March 2026. The dress rehearsal for the game against Dundee can also be described as successful with the 2-2 draw against AC Milan.
Celtic vs FC Dundee AI Predictions:
When the shreds fly in Scotland, our AI model is not far away. The digital brain has worked out three additional tip alternatives for you in its Celtic FC Dundee AI prediction.
“Celtic under 2.5 goals” is quite an interesting recommendation. The fact is that the Glasgow team has never cracked the three-goal mark against Dundee in the last four duels. The odds of about 1.70 at betting providers without taxes are therefore quite tempting.
Predicted chance of winning:

Victory FC Dundee |

Statistically, the selection “Both teams to score” at a surprisingly high odd just below 1.80 also makes sense. In fact, the Glasgow team has only kept one clean sheet in the last 15 games.
At odds of about 1.60, the AI also puts the bet “Celtic leads at half-time” on the scene. Most recently, the Scottish champions led 2-0 against Milan at half-time and only let the reins slip in the second half. A 1-0 half-time lead against Dundee does not seem unlikely, at least from today’s perspective.
