After what felt like a lengthy off-season, Celtic finally return to competitive action this weekend.
Ross County are the visitors to Parkhead on Saturday and ahead of the match, CeltsAreHere tells you all you need to know.
When And Where
Celtic take on Ross County this Saturday the 5th of August at 12.30pm at Parkhead. The league flag will be unfurled by James Forrest before the match.
How Can I Watch?
In the UK, this one is able to watch via Sky Sports. Their Main Event and Football channels are both showing the game with coverage commencing an hour before kick off, at 11.30 am. Outside the UK and Ireland, supporters can stream the game on Celtic TV.
Who Is In Charge?
Nick Walsh is in the middle for this one. He is being assisted by David Roome and Chris Rae; meanwhile, Colin Steven will be the fourth official. On VAR is Greg Aitken, and his assistant will be Alan Mulvanny.
Team News
For this one, everyone who featured midweek against Athletic Club should be available. That means the likes of Cameron Carter-Vickers and Anthony Ralston could feature.
The only players who remain out are Yuki Kobayashi, Alistair Johnston and Marco Tilio.
For Celtic fans, the return to competitive action has been long in the making. Saturday’s game will come just over two months after the Scottish Cup final where the Bhoys secured the treble. Here’s hoping Rodgers’ men can put on a show in their first league match under the Irishman.
