Brendan Rodgers’s Celtic will face Motherwell away from home in the Scottish Premiership this afternoon.

Andy Walker has predicted on Skysports.com that Celtic will win against Motherwell this afternoon.

Brendan Rodgers’s side will take on Motherwell away from home in the Scottish Premiership in a few hours’ time.

Former Celtic striker Walker has backed the Hoops to pick up all three points from the encounter at the Fir Park Stadium.

While predicting a 4-2 victory for the Bhoys, Walker named James Forrest as the key player and wrote on Skysports.com: “Improved enormously under the guidance of Brendan Rodgers.”

Walker’s score-prediction is quite bold, as six goals in a match is not too common.

Although Celtic have the strongest team in the Scottish Premiership, will they be able to find the net four times away from home?

Moreover, is the defence of the Glasgow giants that bad that the team will concede twice against Motherwell?

It is hard to see Rodgers’s side concede twice at the Fir Park Stadium this afternoon.

Celtic are at the top of the Scottish Premiership table at the moment with 34 points from 12 matches.

The Glasgow giants are eight points clear of second-placed Heart of Midlothian with three games in hand.

Motherwell are currently sixth in the standings with 15 points from 14 games.
