📊 Recent form

Celtic come in on a run of six straight league wins, beginning with the 1-0 victory over St Mirren and followed by wins against Falkirk, Hibernian, Rangers, Motherwell and Hearts. Their home league form has also been strong, with five successive wins since the 2-1 defeat by Hibernian, while away from home they have won their last three after the setback at Dundee United.

Dunfermline’s recent league run has been mixed: a 3-0 win at Ayr United was followed by defeat at Partick Thistle, a draw with Airdrieonians, a loss to St Johnstone, a 2-0 win at Queen’s Park and a goalless draw with Arbroath. Away from home, they have taken two wins, two draws and two defeats across their last six.
