Recent respective form guides
Dundee United's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Tangerines have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Celtic's away form is none too clever either, picking up four victories from the last six. The games have constituted a decent return of 10 goals for the The Bhoys, and 1 goals against.
Dundee Utd. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 10 points from 12 matches. Celtic are leading the way in the Bank of Scotland Scottish Premier, with their 12 games giving them a return of 34 points.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Tangerines at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the The Bhoys come away with an easy victory. Away win
