What channel is Cork City v Celtic on? TV details, live stream for pre-season friendly in Ireland

Celtic will step up their pre-season preparations this week as Brendan Rodgers’ squad visit League of Ireland side Cork City on Tuesday night.

The Hoops began their pre-season campaign on Friday with their annual visit to Queen’s Park, where Johnny Kenny’s first-half goal secured a 1-0 win for the Scottish champions against Sean Crighton’s side at the City Stadium.

Celtic will now head to the southwest of Ireland to face Ger Nash’s side, before taking in games against Estrela Amadora and Sporting CP next week before they welcome English Premier League side Newcastle United to Celtic Park on July 19.

While Ross Doohan made his Celtic debut in Friday’s win, fans will be hoping to catch a glimpse of returning hero Kieran Tierney and Swedish international Benjamin Nygren against Cork, with the new signings not featuring in the squad during Friday’s win in Mount Florida.

Here is everything you need to know ahead of the game, including how to watch the game live:
