The cameras are locked in – and with the title race heading to the wire, Celtic supporters now know exactly when and where to watch the moments that matter most.
The SPFL have officially confirmed live TV schedule changes affecting Celtic’s crucial end-of-season fixtures, with both the Celtic v Hearts showdown and the Motherwell clash now confirmed for live broadcast by Sky Sports. The adjustments – flagged via the SPFL’s official TV guide – reflect how dramatically the title race has tightened, with broadcasters reshaping their selections around what has become a genuinely historic run-in. For supporters planning their weekend around the Hoops, this is the confirmation you’ve been waiting on.
Sky Sports Step Up – Finally
Sky Sports have made a late but welcome adjustment to their selections, as reported by The Scotsman, to ensure both Celtic and Hearts receive simultaneous live coverage in the final week of the season. That means supporters can follow both clubs’ fortunes in real time – no refreshing the phone while one game goes unwatched. It’s the kind of thing that should have been automatic from the moment this race became a two-horse thriller, but we’ll take it.
The Motherwell fixture, which produced one of the most nerve-shredding nights of the campaign, was also brought into the live broadcast window. If you weren’t already across just how dramatic that win was – and the controversy that surrounded it – now is the time to catch up, because that result set the whole final-day stage.
What’s At Stake
Put it plainly: Hearts arrive at Paradise knowing a draw or better hands them their first league title since 1960. Celtic need a win, and they need it to count. The BBC has outlined the permutations clearly – Hearts could, in theory, have wrapped things up before the Celtic fixture if results elsewhere broke their way, which is precisely why the decision to televise both clubs’ matches live carries so much weight.
There are injury concerns clouding the picture on both sides – our full breakdown of the Celtic and Hearts injury latest ahead of the title decider has everything you need on that front. What we do know is that Hearts have been the league’s best defensive side for clean sheets this season, while Celtic have gone five games without one. That’s the tactical subplot that will define the afternoon.
Where To Watch
Both the Celtic v Hearts fixture and the Motherwell match are confirmed for live broadcast on Sky Sports. Celtic TV will be available for international subscribers outside the UK and Ireland as normal. Check your local listings for exact kick-off times as confirmed by the SPFL.
