Celtic make a quick return to league action this weekend when they play Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership.

After making a strong start domestically, the Hoops were beaten for the first time under Martin O’Neill after Celtic lost 3-1 against Midtjylland.

Keeping within touching distance of Hearts is important heading into the international break, and with a nine-point gap to make up, they can’t afford to drop any more points.

The last meeting between the two teams finished 2-1 to the Hoops after Kelechi Iheanacho scored a stoppage-time penalty on his debut to bring all three points back from Ayrshire.

A much more comfortable outcome will be expected this time, and ahead of the game, 67 Hail Hail has everything you need to know before Celtic vs Kilmarnock.

What time does Celtic vs Kilmarnock kick off?

Celtic host Kilmarnock on Sunday 9 November at Parkhead, with kick-off at 4:00PM GMT.

They join Alistair Johnston and Iheanacho on the sidelines, along with the two long-term absentees in Jota and Cameron Carter-Vickers.
