Celtic are participating in the Scottish Premiership for the first time this season when they take on Hibernian on Sunday.
At kickoff at 12:30, the Bhoys return to the scene of one of their most impressive victories of last season. Despite an unconvincing performance, Adam Idah’s brace from the penalty spot proved decisive in the race for the name.
It remains to be seen whether the Irishman will return to Celtic before the end of the window. However, Brfinishan Rodgers will be motivated to claim trouble against David Gray’s side, who lost 3-0 to St Mirren last week.
Interestingly, the clash is part of a doubleheader between the two teams that is expected to unfold in the coming weeks. Celtic tied with Hibernian at the time of the Premier Sports Cup, which will be played on Sunday, August 18 at 3:00 p. m.
With anticipation mounting ahead of the trip, VAR and agents have now been named for the showdown on Easter Road.
In centre stage, Nick Walsh has been named Celtic’s referee to Hibernian. The 33-year-old will be supported by Graeme Stewart and Steven Traynor, who will lead either line [Scottish FA].
The fourth official has not yet been appointed. We will send you confirmation upon arrival. VAR is still a topic that sparks many verbal exchanges in Scottish football. This weekend, Alan Muir occupies pole position as the main agent. Alan Mulvanny is available if an incident requires further investigation.
Supporters on both sides expect the final results to be the main topic of discussion at Easter Road rather than the refereeing decisions. Celtic have started the crusade well and, after their convincing victory on the first day with three more points against Hibernian, they would help generate valuable results. new impetus.
The excitement is there with the Bhoys back in action after a long summer break. At the start of two installments of showdowns against the Hibees, hopefully, enthusiastic travelers will return from Edinburgh with a smile on their faces!
