Celtic open post-split fixtures away to Dundee Utd

Celtic will wrap up the Scottish Premiership title if they avoid defeat away to Dundee United on 26 April, following the release of the post-split fixtures.

The champions, on the brink of a 13th top flight success in 14 seasons, are 15 points clear of nearest challengers Rangers with five matches remaining.

Elsewhere in the top six, Aberdeen start at home to Hibernian and Rangers visit St Mirren.

The last Old Firm derby of the season will be at Ibrox on 4 May

There is an imbalance, with Hibernian visiting St Mirren for the third time on 14 May, leaving the Edinburgh club playing 18 home games and 20 away.

In the bottom half, Motherwell will also play 20 matches away from home.

St Johnstone, currently five points adrift at the foot of the table, begin their quest for survival at Fir Park.

Just six points cover Hearts in seventh to Dundee in 11th, the relegation play-off spot.

The top six fixtures will conclude on Saturday, 17 May with 12:30 BST kick-offs, while the last round of the bottom six games will be played the next day at 15:00.
