How to watch Motherwell vs Celtic: date, TV channel, live stream + team news for Scottish Premiership clash
Celtic are back in Scottish Premiership action against the Steelmen this weekend
Celtic head for Fir Park to face Motherwell on Sunday as they return to Premiership action just a few days on from their Champions League outing with Atalanta in Italy.
Brendan Rodgers’ side saw their blemish free start to their league campaign ended by Aberdeen last weekend, with a 2-2 draw played out at Parkhead. The Hoops found themselves two goals ahead before the half-hour mark but conceded twice within 10 second half minutes to drop points for the first time this season.
A resolute defensive showing earned the Scottish champions a goalless draw in Bergamo on Wednesday night, and focus has now quickly shifted back on domestic matters. Motherwell suffered a 1-0 home defeat to Dundee last time out and will be eager to make amends and catch Celtic on an off-day.
