Scottish Premiership live on Sky Sports: fixtures and insights

Introduction to the Scottish Premiership coverage on Sky Sports

The Scottish Premiership continues to captivate football fans across the UK, with Sky Sports providing live coverage of up to 60 matches this season. From the traditional giants like Celtic and Rangers to clubs such as Hearts, Hibernian, Aberdeen, St Mirren, Dundee United and Dundee, the broadcast schedule ensures fans don’t miss the action. As the league intensifies with Hearts currently topping the table, two points clear of Celtic, the stakes are higher than ever.

Key fixtures to watch this season

Some of the most anticipated fixtures are now confirmed for live broadcast on Sky Sports. Notably, Rangers’ trip to Dundee on November 9th will be watched keenly by supporters, especially as it could coincide with a potential new manager's debut, adding an extra layer of intrigue to the encounter. Earlier in the season, Celtic’s visits to St Mirren and Hibernian promise high-quality football, with both matches crucial for the title race.

The month of November is packed, with a double-header weekend featuring St Mirren hosting Celtic on November 22nd, followed by Aberdeen facing league leaders Hearts the next day. These fixtures highlight the competitive nature of the Premiership, where even clubs in the lower half of the table are capable of challenging the frontrunners.

Current standings and team form insights

Hearts have been impressive this season, leading the Premiership with a strong blend of youth and experience. Their consistency has put pressure on traditional powerhouses Celtic and Rangers. Meanwhile, Aberdeen find themselves at the bottom of the table, struggling to find form, which makes their upcoming matches critical for survival hopes.

St Mirren’s robust performances have seen them defeat most teams except Celtic, showcasing their potential as dark horses. In contrast, Dundee United and Dundee continue their efforts to climb the table, with fixtures against top clubs providing valuable opportunities.
