What channel is Hearts v Celtic? TV and live stream details, team news, referee, VAR

Neil Critchley’s side host the defending champions in the late kick-off in Gorgie on a rare weekend when all six top flight matches take place on the same day.

Celtic will be looking to build on an impressive start to the campaign that sees them sitting top of the table, unbeaten after 11 matches, ahead of Aberdeen on goal difference. They claimed a 2-0 win over Kilmarnock at Rugby Park before the international break.

Hearts, meanwhile, are hoping to climb the table after a poor start to the season which has left them one point off the bottom and cost previous manager Steven Naismith his job. Performances have improved under Critchley with Hearts unfortunate to leave Ibrox with a 1-0 defeat to Rangers a fortnight ago.

The Jambos claimed two victories over Celtic last season, winning 2-0 at Parkhead in December, and following it up with the same scoreline at Tynecastle in March. Brendan Rodgers’ side won the previous meeting this season, claiming a 2-0 win at Parkhead in September.
