Celtic will face St Mirren and Hibs at home in the post-split fixtures alongside trips to Ibrox, Pittodrie and Tannadice.

There was a dramatic conclusion to the matches on Matchday 33 that saw St Mirren beat Ross County 3-2 while Hearts finished goal-less with Motherwell at Fir Park.

Hearts went into today’s matches a point ahead of St Mirren and Motherwell but the Paisley side jumped into sixth place denying Hearts an Edinburgh derby and the chance of qualifying for Europe via their league position.

Next Saturday Hearts face Aberdeen in the semi-final of the Scottish Cup, winning that trophy would provide a route into Europe but Neil Critchley faces a big job trying to raise morale around Tynecastle

Having already travelled to St Mirren and Hibs Celtic’s fixtures will provide a balance of 19 home and away without hosting any club three times.

After beating Kilmarnock 5-1 today Celtic are 16 points clear at the top of the Premiership table, defeat at Aberdeen tomorrow for Barry Ferguson’s side will ensure title 55 for the hoops.

The SPFL are expected to announce the fixtures early next week with Celtic almost certain to beat home on Saturday May 17 when they will be presented with the SPFL Premiership trophy.

Joe McHugh has edited Video Celts since 2010, every day covering events in and around Scotland's most successful club.

When a six year stretch at the Sunday Mirror came to an end it was clear that the future was digital, print had ran its race.

Smart phones and social media created a new landscape, Video Celts has certainly made an impact with Joe described as having an unhealthy obsession by Peter Lawwell at the 2024 Celtic AGM. A priceless endorsement.

There are issues breaking around the clock, no two days are the same. More than 50 years on from his first match Joe is enjoying the ongoing successes of Celtic.
