Explore Ladbrokes' detailed preview for Hibernian vs Celtic in the Premiership. Stats, odds, predictions, and lineups for the 12:00 GMT match.

• Fixture: Hibernian vs Celtic
• Date: Sunday, 30 November 2025
• Kick-off: 12:00 GMT
• Venue: Easter Road

Hibs are coming into this match with a solid run of form, having won three of their last five games. They've shown they can score goals, bagging two or more in four of those matches, and their recent victories against Dundee and St Mirren suggest they're in good spirits.

Celtic, on the other hand, have had a bit of a rollercoaster ride, with two losses in their last five but also some convincing wins. Their attack has been potent when it clicks, but they'll need to be wary of Hibs' recent scoring form.

This game could be a close affair, with both teams capable of putting on a show. Hibs will look to exploit their home advantage and continue their scoring streak, while Celtic will be eager to bounce back from their recent losses and assert their dominance. It's likely to be a tactical battle, with Hibs' recent defensive solidity tested against Celtic's attacking flair.

Hibs have been in fine fettle lately, winning three of their last five games and showing a knack for scoring goals. Their recent victories against Dundee and St Mirren, both by multiple goals, indicate they're in good shape heading into this match.

The only blip was a narrow loss to Rangers, but overall, their form suggests they'll be confident going into this game against Celtic. If they can maintain their attacking momentum and keep their defence tight, they could give Celtic a real run for their money.

Recent Premiership Results:

• Win: 2-0 vs Dundee (H)

• Win: 3-0 vs ST Mirren (A)

• Draw: 2-2 vs Livingston (A)

• Loss: 0-1 vs Rangers (H)

• Win: 2-1 vs Aberdeen (A)

Celtic's recent form has been a bit up and down, with two losses in their last five games, but they've also shown they can be ruthless when they get going. Their wins against St Mirren, Kilmarnock, and Falkirk were all by comfortable margins, showcasing their attacking prowess.

However, the losses to Heart of Midlothian and Dundee will be a concern, and they'll need to tighten up at the back if they want to come away with a positive result against a confident Hibs side. Celtic's ability to bounce back will be crucial in this match.

Recent Premiership Results:

• Win: 1-0 vs ST Mirren (A)

• Win: 4-0 vs Kilmarnock (H)

The head-to-head record between Hibs and Celtic shows a mix of results, with Celtic winning three of the last five encounters and Hibs securing one victory. The most recent match ended in a 0-0 draw, suggesting that Hibs can hold their own against Celtic. However, Celtic's three wins, including a 3-0 victory, indicate they have the upper hand historically. This upcoming match could be another close contest, given the recent form of both teams.

• Predicted lineup: Sallinger (GK), Bushiri (DF), Hanley (DF), Iredale (DF), Cadden (MF), Mulligan (MF), Barlaser (MF), Cadden (MF), McGrath (MF), Boyle (AT), Bowie (AT)

Hibs' predicted lineup suggests a solid defensive structure with Bushiri, Hanley, and Iredale at the back, which could help them maintain their recent defensive form. The midfield, led by McGrath and the Cadden brothers, will be key in controlling the game and feeding the ball to attackers Boyle and Bowie.

• Predicted lineup: Schmeichel (GK), Ralston (DF), Trusty (DF), Scales (DF), Tierney (DF), Engels (MF), McGregor (MF), Hatate (MF), Maeda (AT), Kenny (AT), Tounekti (AT)

Celtic's predicted lineup features a strong defensive line of Ralston, Trusty, Scales, and Tierney, which should provide a solid foundation. The midfield trio of Engels, McGregor, and Hatate will be crucial in dictating the tempo and supporting the attacking trio of Maeda, Kenny and Tounekti.

• Boyle vs Trusty: This will be a key battle between Hibs' dynamic attacker Boyle and Celtic's robust defender Trusty.
• Cadden vs Hatate: The duel between Hibs' versatile midfielder Cadden and Celtic's creative force Hatate could be pivotal in the midfield.
• McGrath (Hibernian): McGrath's ability to control the midfield and contribute to Hibs' attacking play makes him a crucial player for the team.
• Kenny (Celtic): Kenny's goal-scoring prowess and ability to lead Celtic's attack make him a player to watch in this match.
