Celtic play at Celtic Park in the east end of Glasgow, with a capacity just over 60,000. Scottish Premiership fixtures most commonly kick off at 15:00 UK time on Saturdays, but Celtic's televised matches frequently move to lunchtime, evening or Sunday slots, especially when they involve Rangers or European competition.
Record Scottish champions and the first British club to win the European Cup, in 1967 with the locally born 'Lisbon Lions', Celtic draw one of the largest and most vocal home supports in Britain, with the standing 'safe-standing' section adding to the din. The Old Firm derby against Rangers is one of world football's most storied and heated fixtures, and it is always handed a standalone broadcast slot. Because Scotland shares the UK clock, Celtic's kick-offs mirror the English windows for overseas fans — a lunchtime derby is an ideal breakfast watch in North America but, like all UK football, an overnight or early-morning commitment for those following from Australia and East Asia.
