What channel is Celtic v Rangers Scottish Premiership match on? TV coverage, live stream and kick-off time
Check out how to watch Celtic v Rangers in the Scottish Premiership, including TV channel, radio coverage and kick-off time.
Scottish Premiership rivals Celtic and Rangers meet for the first Old Firm derby of 2026 at Celtic Park on Saturday lunchtime.
It could well be do or die for Hoops boss Wilfried Nancy, who has lost five of his first seven games since taking charge of the Glasgow club.
If Celtic are beaten at home by their fiercest foe, the Frenchman's ill-fated reign could well be cut short inside a month.
Rangers will relish the opportunity to pile the misery on their Old Firm rivals and know that a victory would pull them level on points with their hosts.
Danny Rohl's side have won four of their last five in the Scottish Premiership and could cut Hearts' lead at the top to three points ahead of their game against Livingston later on Saturday.
