Exciting Celtic Fixtures and Schedule Revealed for Scottish Premiership 2023/24 Season

Celtic, the reigning champions, will commence their quest to defend their title by playing against Ross County in the first match of the 2023/24 Scottish Premiership season on Saturday, August 5. This thrilling encounter will be broadcast live on We.

Upon his return to Celtic Park, Brendan Rodgers will face formidable opponents in the form of Ross County, Aberdeen, and St Johnstone during his initial month in charge. He aims to replicate the impressive achievement of Ange Postecoglou, who led the team to a triumphant treble triumph in the previous season.

The first Old Firm match of the season between Celtic and Rangers will take place at Ibrox on September 3. The reverse fixture will see Rangers traveling to Parkhead on December 30. Both of these matches will be broadcasted live on We. The Glasgow rivals will meet again for a third time on April 6.

After Celtic's away fixture against St Mirren on January 2, their domestic campaign will go on a pause for the winter break. The season will resume with a home fixture against Ross County on January 27.

Celtic's first match after the division will be held on April 27, as the Scottish Premiership regular season will come to an end on the weekend of May 18-19.

In addition to aiming for continued dominance at home, Celtic is determined to improve their performance in the group stages of the Champions League, having only acquired two points in their previous outing.
