Celtic and Rangers games picked for TV as festive derby moved to early kick-off

The next installment of the Old Firm derby will be moved to a 12.30pm kick-off on Saturday, January 2.

The game is one of three selected over the festive period involving Celtic and Rangers, including both their games on Boxing Day.

Rangers host Celtic on January 2 in what will be a huge game in the title race, particularly if both clubs keep winning in the run up.

It's unlikely any fans will be in the stadium again meaning it will be the second derby in a row behind closed doors because of coronavirus.

Steven Gerrard's men will also be live on Sky Sports on Boxing Day when they take on Hibs, also at Ibrox.

The Easter Road side travel to Glasgow for a 12.30pm kick-off in what will be a Scottish Premiership double header live on TV.

Celtic trip to face Hamilton Accies will also be shown on Sky Sports in what will be a brilliant day of festive football.

That's a 3pm kick-off and Neil Lennon's side will be hoping for some Christmas joy at the FOYS Stadium.
