and live on Freeview channel 276
Celtic are six points ahead of their rivals and could go nine clear, with three games remaining, with a win today - but they will have to do so with an important player on the bench.
Manager Ange Postecoglou has named an unchanged line-up from last weekend’s win over Ross County, meaning Tom Rogic, who was so influential when Celtic beat Rangers in the league last month, is on the bench.
