Two highly attacking teams with weaker defenses. Both sides have found the net in 5 of their last 4 games.

Hearts have become 1-0 merchants recently, having won their last 4 and 5/6 of their last league games 1-0. Derek McInnes' side have built a title challenge on a strong defence and nicking goals at the other end, often late in the game. With the title race heating up, I'm predicting another tense affair at the Home of the Set Fair Arena on Sunday. This selection has also landed in 3/3 of Livingston's last league games. You can go U3.5 if you wish to be a little more conservative here, as I don't think it's inconceivable that Liv gets on the scoresheet, which may open up the game. However, 2.20 for a U2.5 selection that would have landed in Livingston's last 3 and Hearts' last 4 league games is a good value bet for me.

Celtic's defense has been leaky of late, having not kept a clean sheet in their last seven league games. Julian Araujo is a huge loss at right back, and with Colby Donovan also sidelined, third-choice Anthony Ralston is likely to deputise at right back. There are also question marks surrounding Austin Trusty's fitness, which would leave Benjamin Arthur and Liam Scales as the centre-back pairing ??" a partnership that is yet to keep a clean sheet. Dundee, meanwhile, have hit some form recently and have seen BTTS land in 5 of their last 6 games, with the only exception being a 1-0 loss to league leaders Hearts. I do think Celtic will win this game as well, simply because they have to to keep their title chances alive. Having won 13 of the last 14 league titles, I'm hoping that experience and a winning mentality come to the fore for the run-in of the most closely contested SPL title race in years. Celtic & BTTS for a more aggressive bet, but I'm most confident about the BTTS part of this selection.
