In this week 1 match, on Sun Apr 24th, Ross County plays host to Celtic in a meeting of these two Premiership teams.

Reo Hatate struck first for Celtic in the 8th minute on a feed from Greg Taylor, then Giorgos Giakoumakis added another in the 22nd minute In the end, St. Johnstone was frustrated by Celtic’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board.
