Andy Walker's Scottish Premiership predictions: Kilmarnock vs Celtic and Rangers vs St Mirren

  /  autty

Sky Sports' Andy Walker offers his predictions ahead of the second weekend of the 2020/21 Scottish Premiership football season.

Rangers vs St Mirren, Sunday, 3pm

In order to be successful this season, Rangers simply have to cope with European football on the Thursday night and travelling back to a home game where they can't afford to slip up. But it's a big boost for the club to have Kemar Roofe and Cedric Itten on board, probable replacements for Alfredo Morelos. St Mirren now go head-to-head with Rangers and Celtic in successive games, a tall order for them.

Kilmarnock vs Celtic, Sunday, 4.30pm, live on Sky Sports Football and Main Event

Celtic started impressively at home to Hamilton last weekend and the variety in their forward play was outstanding. Edouard was clearly the star man but Ryan Christie, Mo Elyounoussi and James Forrest are also a big threat. Granted, Kilmarnock have made it tough for Celtic on occasion at Rugby Park but surely not this time?

Prediction: 0-3
