Celtic v Dundee – Team news, match officials, KO time & where to watch

Celtic have a double header revenge mission at Paradise starting this evening with the visit of Dundee and continuing on Sunday afternoon when Hearts come calling…

The first game will see Martin O’Neill – yesterday named as the Scottish Premiership Manager of the Month – in charge while on Sunday the new permanent Celtic manager Wilfried Nancy will be in the Celtic Park dugout for the first time.

If both bosses get wins then Celtic will be top of the league on Sunday evening. That’s the target and first to deliver is Martin O’Neill who has certainly not let us down since arriving ahead of the Falkirk game at the end of October and a win this evening will means he leaves with a 100% win record in domestic football.

Dundee got a rare victory over Celtic at Dens Park before Hearts came out on top at Tynecastle a week later as the Brendan Rodgers era edged to an acrimonious conclusion which was made ten times worse by the unnecessary self-important statement by Dermot Desmond on the official Celtic FC website.

It wouldn’t be the last time he embarrassed himself as his statement read out at the club’s AGM two weeks ago was disgraceful, attacking the Celtic support who year after year pour their hard earned cash into the football club. For instance during the COVID season the Celtic season ticket holders all renewed their tickets for a season when it was known that there would be no chance of attending games.

Did Manchester United fans do this Dermot? Maybe Liverpool supporters of the season ticket holders at any of the other Premier League clubs? The answer is no and had Celtic supporters – not the billionaire with the big mouth – failed to support the club in it’s hour of need – then that £70m in the bank would be sitting at a significantly lower level. You meanwhile Dermot, have taken £7.6m out in dividends according to the article in The Times that was published yesterday.
