Betting tips – Barcelona vs Celtic – 30.07.2016
Barcelona will face Celtic Glasgow this Saturday from 18:00, UK Time, in a very exciting friendly from International Champions Cup.
The Catalans are clearly in pole-position as expected, this one being their first summer friendly. The last game played by Messi, Suarez & Co took place on May 22nd, 0-0 (2-0) vs Sevilla in the Copa del Rey final. Barcelona defeated Celtic without any problem in the last meeting, 6-1 in November 2013, in a Champions League clash. It’s likely to see many players at work here and not only the stars.
Celtic Glasgow will probably rest many important players here, as they have to face FC Astana next week in the Champions League Qualifiers. The first leg ended with a draw 1-1, so Brendan Rodgers and his players need to win in Scotland. Celtic faced Barcelona eight times in the past 12 years, winning only once, 2-1 in November 2012, both goals coming after corner kicks and Barcelona had more than 80% possession in that game.
Barcelona vs Celtic prediction: Over 2,5 goals @ 1.50
Barcelona have an impressive attack, one of the best in the world right now. They are hungry for goals after more than two months of break, while Celtic are not in their best form, struggling in the attack and in the defense too.
