Celtic Confirm New Date for Hibs Clash After Cup Final Switch

Celtic’s home match against Hibs has been pushed back a month, with the sides now meeting at Parkhead on Wednesday, January 13.

Kick-off will be at 7.45 pm, replacing the previous slot of Sunday, December 13 at 3 pm.

The change follows Hibs reaching the Premier Sports Cup final, where they will face Rangers at Hampden on the December date.

As covered on CeltsAreHere yesterday, their 2–1 semi-final victory over Hearts created a direct clash with the scheduled league visit to Celtic Park. The clubs have now confirmed the replacement date.

It means another change for supporters who had planned around a weekend fixture.

The Hibs match had already been moved from Saturday to Sunday because of Celtic’s Europa League commitments. It will now take place under the lights in January instead.

That is hardly ideal for fans travelling a distance, particularly those juggling work, school and transport arrangements. A Wednesday evening requires considerably more planning than a Sunday afternoon.

The cup final made another switch unavoidable, though, and supporters at least now have a firm date to work towards.

The rearranged game adds another home fixture to Celtic’s January calendar, with Dundee scheduled to visit on January 9 and Marseille arriving in the Europa League on January 21. It’s Scottish Cup weekend on the 16th, too.

For the diary: Celtic v Hibs, Wednesday, January 13, 2027, 7.45 pm at Celtic Park.
