Recent form

Celtic

Celtic's recent form has been nothing short of exceptional, showcasing a remarkable run of six consecutive victories across all competitions. Their dominance is evident in their impressive goal difference of 16, having scored 17 goals while conceding only once in their last six matches. The team's defensive prowess is particularly noteworthy, with five clean sheets in this period. Celtic's attacking threat is highlighted by their average of 2.83 goals scored per game, with 67% of their matches seeing over 2.5 goals. The standout performances include a convincing 3-0 victory over rivals Rangers and a high-scoring 4-0 win against Kilmarnock, both in the Premiership. This run of form demonstrates Celtic's strength in both attack and defense, positioning them as a formidable force in Scottish football.

Slovan Bratislava

Slovan Bratislava's recent form shows a mixture of impressive performances and a concerning defeat. They are currently on a three-game winning streak across all competitions, including a notable 3-2 victory over FC Midtjylland in the Champions League. However, their 5-0 loss to Žilina in the Super Liga stands out as a particularly heavy defeat, contrasting sharply with their 5-0 win against AC Nitra in the Cup. The team's goal-scoring prowess is evident, averaging 2.17 goals per game over the last six matches, with 67% of these games seeing over 2.5 goals. Defensively, they've managed two clean sheets but have also conceded an average of 1.5 goals per game, largely influenced by the anomalous 5-0 loss. Their ability to bounce back from this defeat with consecutive wins demonstrates resilience, but the high-scoring nature of their recent matches (an average of 3.67 total goals per game) suggests both offensive strength and potential defensive vulnerabilities.
