How to watch Celtic vs Hearts: TV channel, kick-off time and live stream details

Celtic will be looking to make it four wins from four when they welcome Hearts to Parkhead.

Ange Postecoglou's men have a 100 per cent record to date in the Scottish Premiership, but they face a Jambos side who are also unbeaten so far this campaign domestically with seven points from a possible nine. Robbie Neilson and his troops head into this showdown off the back of a Europa League first leg defeat to Swiss champions FC Zurich but with the tie finely poised at 2-1 after the first leg, they face a massive night under the lights at Tynecastle next midweek.

For Celtic, they are entering the Champions League at the group stages this season after reclaiming the league title from Rangers last term. That has afforded the Aussie box the luxury of fully focussing on just league matters and one game a week.

That is all set to change next month but for now, the Hoops are enjoying their schedule with a hectic run of fixtures on the horizon.
