Celtic vs Dundee Competition – Scottish Premiership Stadium: Celtic Park Date: 3rd August 2026 Kick-off time -19:30 GMT
Monday evening at Celtic Park sees the Scottish Premiership open its 2026/27 season with a clash between the reigning champions and a Dundee side that will be determined to cause an upset on the opening day. Celtic head into the new campaign having had a pre-season of mixed results, while Dundee arrive with League Cup momentum behind them and the confidence of a strong domestic cup run already underway.
Celtic’s pre-season has been something of a rollercoaster. Their most recent outing was a 2-2 home draw with AC Milan — an entertaining fixture that showed both their attacking quality and defensive vulnerability against top European opposition. Prior to that, a 1-1 home draw with Middlesbrough. Before that, a 4-1 defeat away to Sporting CP was their heaviest pre-season reverse and gave their coaching staff clear defensive issues to address. Earlier in this run, a 1-1 draw away to Shelbourne and a 3-1 home win over Dunfermline in the Scottish Cup final of last season. Celtic are a side with genuine quality throughout — Forrest and Engels provide the attacking width, Duran is a handful in the front line, McCowan and Murray give them energy in midfield, and Sinisalo has been reliable in goal. The question for the opening day is whether the defensive solidity seen against Dunfermline can be replicated against a Dundee side that can hurt teams on the counter.
Dundee arrive at Celtic Park with genuine League Cup momentum. Their most recent outing was a 4-0 home win over Clyde in the League Cup — a dominant, confident performance that sent a clear message about their intentions for the new season. Prior to that, a narrow penalty shootout exit to Ross County in the League Cup was offset by strong performances in other group-stage outings. Before that, a 4-0 home defeat to Everton in a friendly showed they can be exposed against higher-quality opposition, but wins of 5-0 away to Annan and 4-2 at home to Airdrieonians in the League Cup demonstrated their attacking capability. Wright and Reilly provide the creative spark, Murray leads the line, and Astley and O’Hara give them a physical defensive base.
The head-to-head record between these sides strongly favours Celtic, who have won four of the last five known meetings — Dundee’s only win coming in October 2025. Most recently, Celtic won 2-1 at Dundee in a Premiership fixture in April 2026. In the previous encounter, Celtic beat Dundee 2-1 after extra time at home in the Scottish Cup in February 2026.
