CELTIC’S SCOTTISH PREMIER League game away to Glasgow rivals Partick Thistle has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
The game was scheduled to kick-off at 5.30pm this evening but heavy overnight rain left the Firhill Stadium pitch under water.
The officials made the decision following an inspection at 1.15pm.

The postponement of the game means that Celtic will be overtaken at the top of the table if Aberdeen defeat St Johnstone at Pittodrie later on Thursday.
Next-up for Ronny Delia’s side is a trip to Kilmarnock on Monday.
