In a highly anticipated showdown, league leaders Celtic will face off against second-place Aberdeen in a pivotal match that could shape the outcome of this year’s title race. The two teams, both boasting flawless records with seven wins from seven matches, are set to put it all on the line as they battle it out at Parkhead.
Celtic has been dominant this season, scoring an impressive 22 goals while conceding just one. However, Aberdeen has been equally impressive, sitting joint top of the table and only narrowly behind on goal difference. With both teams in top form, the stage is set for an exhilarating clash as club football returns after the international break.
Surprisingly, this highly anticipated fixture has not been selected for TV coverage, despite the intense competition and implications it holds for the title race. The decision not to broadcast the match stems from Celtic’s choice to opt out of a contract that would have allowed Premier Sports to televise the game, citing concerns for their loyal season ticket holders.
As the teams prepare to face off on Saturday 19 October, Celtic defender Cameron Carter-Vickers looks set to return to the squad after training, while Aberdeen will be without key players Pap Habib Gueye and Dante Polvara due to injuries. With both sides eager to maintain their perfect records, all eyes will be on Parkhead for what promises to be an electrifying encounter.
