What channel is Celtic v Kilmarnock on? Kick-off time, how to watch, referee and VAR officials
The last time Celtic tasted defeat at Parkhead in a Scottish setting was nearly two years ago – a 2-1 reverse to St Mirren in a Premiership fixture on January 30, 2021 under previous manager Neil Lennon during the failed bid to land a 10th consecutive Premiership title.
All of Postecoglou’s domestic losses across his season and a half in charge – which amount to just five matches – have come either away from home or in the neutral setting of Hampden Park, where Rangers claimed an extra-time victory in last season’s Scottish Cup semi-final.

Hide AdCeltic’s only league defeat this season came at St Mirren in September, with Postecoglou’s side recovering impressively to embark on a 12-match winning run which only came to an end earlier this week with Monday’s 2-2 at Ibrox.
Kilmarnock are up next in the first of a double header between the two sides ahead of the Viaplay Cup semi-final at Hampden the following weekend.
A victory would see league leaders Celtic open up a 12-point gap over rivals Rangers, who do not play until Sunday with a trip to face Dundee United at Tannadice.
