What channel is Celtic v Aberdeen on? TV, live stream and team news for huge Premiership clash

Celtic and Aberdeen meet in what is undoubtedly the game of the weekend as the Premiership resumes following the international break.

Both teams have an 100 per cent league record going into the match at Celtic Park, with Brendan Rodgers’ champions ahead of the Dons in the standings by virtue of goal difference.

Since taking over in the summer, Aberdeen’s Swedish manager Jimmy Thelin has won all 13 competitive games he has presided over - but the acid test will come on Saturday when they travel to Glasgow. In the past 20 encounters at Parkhead, Aberdeen have lost 18, with their only victory in that sequence coming in 2018 when Andy Considine netted in a 1-0 win.

Here are all the details for the clash at Celtic Park:
