Celtic fixtures: Premiership 2015/16

Celtic's quest for a fifth successive Scottish Premiership title begins with a home match against Ross County on Saturday, August 1, the first of six matches during the opening month of the 2015/16 season.

Seven days later Ronny Deila takes his side across Glasgow to face local rivals Partick Thistle and they end the month with a home match against Tommy Wright's St Johnstone.

A break for the European Qualifiers is followed by a trip to Aberdeen before they take on newly-promoted Hearts at Celtic Park on September 26.

And Robbie Neilson's side provide the opposition at Tynecastle on Boxing Day, three days before the champions travel to Dens Park to take on Dundee.

The new year kicks off with a home match against Partick Thistle on January 2 and Celtic end their pre-split campaign with a short trip to Motherwell on Saturday, April 9.
