Sat Apr 26 11:20:00 UTC 2025: ## Celtic on Verge of Title as They Face Dundee United

**Dundee, Scotland** – Celtic are on the cusp of securing their 55th Scottish Premiership title when they face Dundee United at Tannadice Park on Saturday. A draw will be enough to clinch the championship for Brendan Rodgers’ side, who hold a commanding 15-point lead at the top of the table.

Dundee United, meanwhile, aim to finish the season strongly, hoping to claim the “best of the rest” title by securing third place in the league. They trail Hibernian by only three points and enter the match on a three-game winning streak. However, they face a formidable opponent in Celtic, who have avoided defeat in their last 22 encounters with Dundee United.

Celtic are in excellent form, having recently thrashed Kilmarnock 5-1 and St Johnstone 5-0 in the Scottish FA Cup semi-final, keeping their hopes of a domestic treble alive. While Kasper Schmeichel remains sidelined with a shoulder injury, Adam Idah and Daizen Maeda are expected to start after their impressive performances against St Johnstone. Jota is also a possibility to feature in the starting XI.

Dundee United will be without Louis Moult and Declan Gallagher, whose contracts won’t be renewed, but top scorer Sam Dalby is fit despite a recent hamstring concern.

Despite Dundee United’s recent successes, the pre-match analysis suggests a comfortable victory for the heavily favoured Celtic. The match kicks off Saturday afternoon.
