Celtic fans are entranced in Christmas spirit, with the big day not far off now.
After their disappointing goalless draw with Dundee United on Sunday, though, the Bhoys will be eager to get back out on the pitch and settle some differences, with Motherwell lying in wait on Boxing Day.
Getting back to winning ways with a positive result and performance would be the perfect belated Christmas present for Brendan Rodgers and Co., who still sit nine points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership. They have the chance, with a victory, to briefly go 12 ahead of Rangers before they play later in the day on Thursday.
Given it’s the day after Christmas, Celtic won’t expect a capacity home crowd on the 26th, and the club recently announced they will run a pay-per-view service for the clash with the Steelmen.
Fans across the UK and Ireland who aren’t going to the game can, therefore, stream it via Celtic TV for £12.99. A special discounted price of £9.99 is available for supporters in the UK and Ireland who have already subscribed to Celtic TV.
The Hoops last faced Motherwell at Fir Park in October, when a travelling side captained by Alistair Johnston came away dominant 3-0 victors.
Goals from Luke McCowan, Johnston, and Adam Idah helped secure the points that day; a similar result and scoreline would be greatly welcomed this time around.
