Celtic face a packed schedule between now and the World Cup with 13 games to be played in just six weeks.
The Scottish Premiership will shutdown following the matches on November 12 as Qatar 2022 takes centre stage. A winter tournament means a packed out fixture card and for Ange Postecoglou and his reigning Scottish champions, it will be one almighty effort required with fixtures on three fronts for the Hoops.
Domestic Premiership action coupled up with four Champions League games in their bid to reach the knockout stages of Europe's Premier competition or at minimum secure Europa League football after Christmas and a Premier Sports Cup last eight clash all fall in this run of games. It all kicks off on October 1 against Motherwell at Parkhead with the final game coming on November 12 at home to Ross County.
