Celtic’s Premiership match against Dundee has been postponed due to damage to the stadium caused by Storm Eowyn.

The sides were due to meet in the league on Saturday afternoon at 3pm but the Parkhead club said on Friday that the match may not be able to go ahead.

The extent of the damage is not yet known but Celtic had said that supporter safety was the priority and a decision would be made on whether they would be able to host the game after the damage was assessed.

Now the club has announced that the game is off as a result of the damage.

A brief statement read: “Unfortunately, due to the stadium damage sustained yesterday we have been advised that we are unable to proceed with today’s match. While clearly this is disappointing, the safety of our supporters will always be our priority.”

The match will now be played on Wednesday, February 5.
