Dundee Utd v Celtic: Referee confirmed for Sunday’s Tannadice test

Celtic return to Premiership action this weekend with a trip to Tannadice to face Dundee United. The Scottish Champions picked up the Premier Sports League Cup with a penalty shootout win over Rangers at Hampden and will look to continue the feel good factor with a win over Jim Goodwin’s side.

The SFA have confirmed the refereeing appointments for the game with David Dickinson set to take charge. Dickinson will be assisted by Calum Spence and Craig Ferguson.

Meanwhile at Clydesdale House, Gavin Duncan is on VAR duties with Andrew McWilliam assisting.

The 44-year-old took charge of Celtic’s 3-0 win against Motherwell at Fir Park back in October. The official missed a penalty call for Celtic after Daizen Maeda was hauled down by Stephen O’Donnell before his hand guided the ball into the net. Later in the game, Dickinson upgraded Liam Gordon’s yellow card to a red after his late challenge on Adam Idah was reviewed.

Rangers and Aberdeen will look to put Brendan’s side under pressure as they play on Saturday; however, given the form so far this season, Celtic fans will be hopeful of picking up three points against the 2023/24 SPFL Championship Winners.

  1. No surprise really, as personally believe that this horrible cheating hun scum official is the worst of the lot of them?
    Safe bet that he will be looking to take centre stage on Sunday imo, and numerous dodgy and ridiculous decision making is to be expected yet again?
