Barry Ferguson has told Betsafe that Celtic will lose to Hibernian in the Scottish Premiership this weekend.

The former Rangers midfielder believes Hibernian will end Celtic’s stunning unbeaten run in Scotland.

The Hoops have gone 67 games without defeat in domestic competitions in Scotland.

Ferguson told Betsate: “It’s a great opportunity for Hibs to stop it, and I think they might just do that.”

Hibernian have a good team and are aiming to finish second in the Scottish Premiership this season.

Neil Lennon’s side came close to beating Celtic at Celtic Park in the league in September, but they had to settle for a 2-2 draw.

Sunday’s match is at Easter Road, meaning that Hibernian will have home advantage, and this could have an impact on the game.

Although Celtic have the strongest team in Scotland, there have been occasions this season when they have looked vulnerable.

The Hoops’ defence can be caught up, and one should not be surprised if Hibernian win against the Glasgow giants.

Celtic are at the top of the Scottish Premiership table at the moment, while Hibernian are currently fourth in the standings.
