Celtic vs Dundee Prediction, Odds & Statistics
Our Poisson-based model projects 1.67 expected goals for Celtic and 0.77 for Dundee, a combined total of 2.44. That distribution gives Celtic the largest share of the 1X2 market at 59%, with the draw at 24%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 44% for over 2.5 goals and 44% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 15%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 59% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion
The model's leading selection is Celtic win, at 58.9%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.
It puts both teams scoring at 44% and over 2.5 goals at 44%.
A 59% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
