Celtic strike Premier Sports deal as fan shutout fears over Betfred Cup showdown laid to rest

Celtic have struck a deal with Premier Sports to ensure fans don't miss out on Betfred Cup action.

Neil Lennon 's side host Ross County in the last 16 as their bid to retain the trophy for a fifth straight season gets under way.

Earlier this week, the tie was selected for broadcast on the subscription-only channel.

That left some Hoops fans fearing they'd miss out on the November 29 fixture.

But Celtic have announced an agreement to grant season ticket holders access via the Premier Sports player.

A club spokesperson said: “We are so grateful to our season ticket holders for the huge commitment they have made to the club during this very difficult year.

"Clearly, we desperately want our fans back with us safely at Celtic Park. However, until this is the case we aim to do all we can to provide additional access and value to our fans.

“We are pleased to partner with Premier Sports and again offer our supporters this access as we begin the defence of a trophy we have won for the last four consecutive seasons.

"We thank our season ticket holders, indeed all our fans for their fantastic continued support.”
