Celtic are finally back in action this weekend as they welcome Hearts to Parkhead in the Scottish Premiership.
The Bhoys are looking to build on an impeccable start to the season, which has seen them win five out of five domestic games so far.
In the league, Brendan Rodgers’ men have been perfect. Maximum points have been secured, and new goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is yet to concede in the Scottish Premiership.
Things are rosy in Glasgow’s east end, and Rodgers will be keen to keep up such a theme when the Jambos come to town on Saturday.

Celtic will take on Hearts this Saturday, September 14th. Kick-off is at 3pm in the UK.
Referee and VAR
Colin Steven is in charge of this one. Frank Connor and Calum Spence are due to run the lines, while Alan Muir will take up VAR duties alongside Graham McNeillie.
TV and Stream

Injury and Team News
There are few injury concerns for Celtic heading into this one.
Alistair Johnston did come off early for Canada on Saturday night, yet Jesse Marsh provided a hopeful update on his condition post-match.
The Canadian will be assessed by Celtic’s medical team ahead of this weekend’s game.
Other than Johnston, there are no availability doubts for the Hoops going into the clash.
Celtic will be desperate to win on Saturday and pile the pressure on their city rivals.
Indeed, if the Bhoys do the business against Hearts, Rangers will head to Tannadice on Sunday eight points behind their Glasgow rivals.
Things are heating up in the Scottish Premiership only a few weeks into the season.
