Hearts manager Derek McInnes has looked ahead to his side's final Scottish Premiership fixture of the season, a trip to face Celtic at Parkhead on May 24. McInnes described the prospect as potentially the "most dramatic fixture you can have" given the context of the title race.
As of April 8, 2026, Celtic are locked in a tight battle with Rangers at the top of the league table. The final day could see the championship decided, with Hearts playing the role of potential spoilers against the reigning champions.
"When you go to Celtic on the last day, with what could be at stake for them, it's the most dramatic fixture you can have," McInnes was quoted as saying in the original report. Hearts are currently competing for a European qualification spot, adding significance to their own end to the campaign.
The fixture is scheduled for Saturday, May 24, 2026, with kick-off time yet to be confirmed. All fixtures are subject to change for television broadcast.
