The league fixtures have been confirmed for Celtic, and it looks like a busy start to the season.
First up Celtic have got the French friendlies to look forward to, playing Nice, Lyon and PSG in friendlies. Playing these teams should be an enjoyable experience for the bhoys as they are very structured teams, and they will not be easy to play, especially when PSG beat Le Havre 9-0 last night.
FRANCE FRIENDLIES:
5:15 pm, 16/07- Nice- Groupama stadium Â
7:45 pm, 18/07- Lyon- Groupama stadium
6:00 pm, 21/07- PSG- Le Parc des Princes
The hoops start back the season in August where they look to end the journey and succeed in conquering 10-in-a-row. As they return to league duty, the Bhoys need to hit the ground running. Hamilton on flag day followed closely by away days against Kilmarnock and St Mirren will prove tough.

Celtic will play against Rangers in the Glasgow derby in October for the first time in ten months, with the Scottish champions at home first. With the pandemic going on they’re still unsure about the fan situation, by the time the game rolls around, there’s hope at least some supporters will be permitted in the stadium.
We’ll be covering all the games in the upcoming season on the site and all our social media channels!
