Sky Sports has confirmed that the highly anticipated Scottish Premiership clash between Celtic and Hearts will not be televised due to ongoing technical issues.
The broadcaster, which holds exclusive rights to several Scottish football fixtures, encountered an unexpected failure in their live-streaming systems, rendering them unable to air the game.
This announcement has frustrated fans, particularly those of Celtic and Hearts, who were looking forward to watching the match. Sky Sports issued a statement apologizing for the inconvenience and assured viewers that they are working hard to resolve the issue. Despite the disappointment, the match will still proceed at Celtic Park as scheduled, but fans will need to rely on radio updates or follow the game via social media channels for live commentary.
For both clubs, this match holds significant importance as Celtic continues its push for another league title, while Hearts is fighting to secure a strong position in the top half of the table. The lack of live broadcast coverage means fans will miss out on what could be a key moment in the season.
There has been no confirmation yet on whether the issue will impact other scheduled matches in the coming days. Supporters are encouraged to stay updated via Sky Sports’ website and social media channels for any changes or updates regarding future broadcasts. Additionally, both Celtic and Hearts have expressed their disappointment and urged fans to continue showing support through other means as they face off in this critical fixture.
