Celtic are enjoying a totally dominant start to their Scottish Premiership title defence.
Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers’ team have been totally relentless and after 22 games, the Hoops have raced to an 18-point gap ahead of Rangers.
Celtic’s win over Ross County was the club’s 19th of the season and now that the Bhoys are more than halfway into the season, where does the Parkhead club’s Scottish Premiership form compare to the top five leagues in Europe?
Celtic’s relentless form stands out from Liverpool, Real Marid and more
With 22 games played, Celtic have won 19, drew 2 and lost just once. With a goal difference of +53, the Hoops are likely to retain the title with just 16 games left to play.
So with that in mind, 67 Hail Hail decided to look at just how good Celtic’s form is compared to the multi-million-pound squads Liverpool, Real Madrid and PSG have assembled.
Even allowing for Celtic’s extra games played, the 2.68 points per game Rodgers has amassed is an incredible record compared to others across Europe.
Now many may scoff at this and say Celtic should be romping the league with the resources they have at their disposal but it’s all relative compared to the spending power of all teams named in the above league table.
Celtic’s strange final two January Scottish Premiership fixtures
Celtic have two fixtures left to fulfil in the Scottish Premiership this month as Rodgers looks to bring a hectic festive schedule to an end.
However, what is strange is that both games are against Dundee and they are just 11 days apart.
The Hoops welcome Tony Docherty’s side to Celtic Park on Tuesday night before wrapping up January with a trip to Dens Park on the 25th of January.
If Rodgers can negotiate both fixtures with a win, the Celtic will take a huge stride in retaining their Scottish Premiership title.
