Where to watch Kilmarnock vs. Celtic live stream, TV channel, start time for Scottish Premiership match

The Scottish Premiership continues this weekend as reigning champions Celtic travel to take on Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on Sunday.

Kilmarnock have had a rough go in recent seasons, finishing ninth in 2024-25 and tenth in 2025-26, just above relegation. While Killie looked to bounce back in this year's debut match, they were ultimately unable to defeat newly-promoted St. Johnstone in a 4-3 thriller. 

Meanwhile, Celtic is still on top following a domestic double last season, in which they won both the Scottish FA Cup and Premiership title. Though Martin O'Neill's side struggled in the preseason, they recovered with a solid 1-0 win over Dundee to start the new campaign.
