Celtic vs St. Mirren Prediction

Celtic's dominance of the Scottish top flight continued as the Hoops secured a fourth successive league title and 55th overall a few weeks ago. Brendan Rodgers' side have nothing left to play for in the league this season but will want to end the campaign on a high in their last league game of the season.

St. Mirren have punched above their weight this season and their performance has seen them secure a spot in the UEFA Conference League, their first European qualification in 37 years.
