Celtic fans will have to rely on the club’s own streaming service to watch their side take on Sporting CP in a pre-season friendly on Tuesday, after no UK television broadcaster picked up the fixture. The match, which kicks off at 5.30pm at the Estadio Algarve in Almancil, Portugal, will be streamed live on CelticPlayer from 5.15pm, with audio commentary also available on the same platform.
Manager Martin O’Neill will be without several key players for the warm‑weather training camp fixture. Striker Johnny Kenny is ruled out with a knee injury, Camilo Duran is doubtful due to illness, and eight internationals are still resting after the World Cup. Defender Cameron Carter‑Vickers’ fitness remains unclear.
“Celtic's friendly vs Sporting CP is online-only; France face Spain in World Cup semi-final.”
Meanwhile, the football world turns its attention to the World Cup, where France and Spain meet in the semi‑finals. The match offers the first chance to secure a spot in the final, pitting the tournament favourites against the second‑favourites. No further details on broadcast or kick‑off time were provided by the club or officials.
