The Scottish Premiership match between St Johnstone and Celtic was rescheduled due to television coverage requirements. Originally set for Saturday, December 2, the fixture was moved to Sunday, December 3, with a 12:00 GMT kick-off at McDiarmid Park. This adjustment was made to accommodate live broadcasting by Sky Sports, which selected the match for televised coverage.
Fixture changes for television are a common practice in Scottish football to enhance matchday exposure and cater to a broader audience. While such alterations can be inconvenient for fans, they are often essential for the financial health of the league and its clubs. In this instance, the rescheduling allowed for wider television coverage, benefiting both clubs and supporters.
As of now, no new date has been announced for the postponed fixture. Fans are advised to stay updated through official club channels and the Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL) for the latest information.
