CELTIC’S crucial Premiership encounter against Motherwell at Fir Park tomorrow night WILL be shown live by Sky Sports TV.
The satellite broadcaster has performed a U-turn after originally stating the champions’ penultimate league game of the season would be covered only by information flashes during the Hearts v Falkirk match taking place at Tynecastle at the same time.
The Edinburgh club’s meeting was originally selected for live coverage with Sky Sports as they sit a point ahead of Martin O’Neill’s side before the clubs go head-to-head in the league climax at Parkhead on Saturday.
HIGH HOPES…Motherwell defender Stephen O’Donnell heads clear from Daizen Meada during Celtic’s dismal 2-0 loss in their last visit to Fir Park on December 30 2025.
The broadcaster reckoned they would be able to cover the possibility of a title win in the capital if Hearts won and Celtic lost at Fir Park.
After an outcry from Hoops fans – and neutral viewers – the TV bosses have been forced into a quick rethink and now both games will be beamed live simultaneously.
The North Lanarkshire club had already offered live coverage on a pay-per-view basis through Motherwell TV. But viewers can now watch on Sky Sports+HD.
