Celtic’s Premiership match against Dundee is in doubt due to damage to the stadium caused by Storm Eowyn.

The sides are due to meet in the league on Saturday afternoon at 3pm but the Parkhead club have advised fans that the match may not be able to go ahead.

The extent of the damage is not yet known but Celtic say that supporter safety is the priority and cannot say at this stage if they will be able to host the game.

A club statement read: “Unfortunately today’s severe weather conditions have caused some damage at Celtic Park.   
 
“Our stadium and safety staff are currently unable to fully assess the extent of the damage due to the ongoing extreme conditions.
 
“In light of this and in order that we communicate fully and openly with our fans, in the interests of supporter safety, we are unable to confirm at this stage whether the match tomorrow between Celtic and Dundee (Jan 25) will be able to proceed.

“Of course, we will be doing all we can to ensure that it does.
 
“A full assessment and decision will be made as early as possible tomorrow morning (Saturday) and we will update our supporters as soon as we can.
 
“We thank our supporters sincerely for their understanding.”
