The SPFL has confirmed the TV broadcasting situation heading into the final five matches.

The Hoops have two away matches to kick off the split, travelling to Hearts before taking a short journey across the city to face their rivals. Both of these matches will be on TV.

Then, Celtic host St Mirren in a 3 pm match on Saturday May 20th. As expected, this match will not be on TV. Sky Sports can only show a maximum of four games a season at Celtic Park, meaning if the broadcaster wants to show the team lifting the trophy, this match couldn’t be on TV.

Midweek has Celtic travelling to the capital again to face Hibs; while this is a fixture that is usually shown on TV, it will not be on Sky Sport’s channels this time around, with the broadcaster snubbing the fixture.

The final match of Celtic’s season will see high-flying Aberdeen travel to Glasgow for a 12.30 kick off, which, as expected, Sky cameras will cover as the Hoops lift the league trophy for the second consecutive season.
