Celtic’s Premiership fixture with Dundee faces uncertainty after fierce storms battered Scotland, leaving doubts over the state of Celtic Park.
The club confirmed late tonight that gale-force winds and heavy rain have caused damage inside the stadium.
With conditions still hazardous, safety and operations staff have been unable to complete a full inspection. That means no call has yet been made on whether the game can be staged as scheduled.
Celtic said in a statement: “Severe weather today has affected Celtic Park. Our staff cannot safely carry out a full review of the damage at present. Until that can be completed, we cannot confirm if tomorrow’s match against Dundee will proceed. Supporter safety remains our priority.”
The Parkhead board added that they are working tirelessly to make the game possible but stressed that the final decision will rest on tomorrow morning’s inspection once conditions ease.
The storm has caused chaos across Scotland, with schools closed, rail lines suspended, and businesses forced to shut down.
For Celtic, the timing could hardly be worse. Sitting top of the table and chasing momentum, the champions are eager to press on.
Dundee, meanwhile, view the trip to Glasgow as a chance to measure themselves against the league leaders and will be desperate for the clash to go ahead.
For now, the situation remains in limbo. Fans are urged to keep a close eye on the club’s official channels for further updates, with clarity expected early in the day.
Until then, the weather holds the final word.
