Celtic welcome Hearts to Glasgow this afternoon for a Premiership clash that carries weight in the title chase. Kick-off at Celtic Park is scheduled for 3pm.

Is it on TV?
This one won’t be screened live in the UK, as neither Sky Sports nor Premier Sports has selected the game, according to Celtsarehere.com. Supporters abroad can watch via Celtic TV, while fans at home must wait for highlights on BBC Scotland’s Sportscene at 7.15pm.

Team News
Between the posts, Viljami Sinisalo is set for his Premiership debut. The young Finnish keeper steps in for Kasper Schmeichel, who returned injured from international duty. Sinisalo has featured just once this season, in the Scottish Cup.

In midfield, captain Callum McGregor is tipped to return after missing the Glasgow derby earlier in the month. Paulo Bernardo and James Forrest are also pushing for involvement after recovering from their own knocks.

Match Officials
Kevin Clancy will oversee proceedings with Ross Macleod and David Roome running the lines. Greg Aitken handles VAR duties, assisted by Chris Rae.

With Celtic chasing another league crown and the possibility of a treble still alive, this encounter carries more than just three points.

Hearts will look to spoil the party, but for Brendan Rodgers’ side, the pressure is real and the stakes are high.
