  2. Flag day elsewhere

    Now the attention turns to three more Premiership fixtures, plus a full card in the Championship, League One and League Two.

    Hibernian, Livingston and Arbroath are all unfurling their league championship flags.

  3. FULL-TIME - Celtic 4-1 Hearts

    Celtic start where they finished last season - and where they hope to finish this one two - with another thumping win.

    The champions have started their assault on another unbeaten domestic season as they chase that seventh title in a row.

    Hearts provided only token resistance until the loss of the first goal and whoever they appoint as their new head coach faces a tough job to rejuvenate them.

  4. Celtic 4-1 Hearts

    Hearts are having a wee flurry as Celtic relax into the glory of their victory.

    Arnaud Djoum dispossesses Scott Brown before firing a fine looping drive towards goal, with goalkeeper Craig Gordon coming up with an over-demonstrative save designed for the cameras.

    Craig Gordon went to ground too quickly and got beaten at his near post. He will be really disappointed with that

  6. Celtic 4-1 Hearts

    Olivier Ntcham is replaced in the Celtic midfield with Stuart Armstrong.

    GOAL - Celtic 4-1 Hearts

    Isma Goncalves

    Shock, horror, Celtic have lost a goal at home.

    Isma Goncalves picks up a good pass from Arnaud Djoum and shrugs off the challenge of Jozo Simunovic before firing powerfully off the body of goalkeeper Craig Gordon and high into the net.

    Gordon's positioning was in question as Scotland drew with England last month and he didn't look too clever there either.

  8. Sinclair sinks Hearts

  9. Celtic 4-0 Hearts

    Isma Goncalves shows some impressive footwork inside the Celtic penalty box and tries to set up Don Cowie charging in, but the striker's pass is too fast for the former Scotland midfielder.

  10. Grzelak lacking?

    Celtic 4-0 Hearts

    What is about Hearts and poor left-backs? It has been line after line of them. Oshaniwa was poor, Sowah was poor, Rherras...and now Grzelak. Why can't Craig Levein source a good left-back?

  11. Celtic 4-0 Hearts

    Callum McGregor is next to receive a standing ovation as the 24-year-old Scotland prospect is replaced in the Celtic midfield by Tom Rogic.

  12. goal

    GOAL - Celtic 4-0 Hearts

    Callum McGregor

    I told you Callum McGregor had an eye for goal. Scott Sinclair sets up the midfielder on the edge of the Hearts penalty box and he thumps a powerful drive high past prone goalkeeper Jack Hamilton.

  13. Celtic 3-0 Hearts

    Kyle Lafferty is next to be hooked and just in time as the booked Hearts striker was close to receiving a second yellow card.

    Fellow forward Conor Sammon is his replacement.

  14. Celtic 3-0 Hearts

    That was Rafal Grzelak's final contribution as Hearts make a change, striker Isma Goncalves replacing the left-back as they change shape.

  15. YELLOW CARD

    Celtic 3-0 Hearts

    Rafal Grzelak is the latest Hearts player to be booked to round off a poor league debut for the Polish left-back.

  16. Celtic 3-0 Hearts

    Leigh Griffiths, who has been carrying an injury, has done his job with two goals and is replaced with Jonny Hayes.

  17. goal

    GOAL - Celtic 3-0 Hearts

    Leigh Griffiths

    It's Leigh and easy for Celtic as Callum McGregor gets fed up trying to find the target himself and finds Griffiths with a fine cross and the Scotland striker heads home from close range.

  18. Celtic 2-0 Hearts

    On-loan Liverpool midfielder Connor Randall is on for Prince Buaben as Hearts make their first change.

  19. Celtic 2-0 Hearts

    Callum McGregor is at it again, but this time his shot flies just wide of the Hearts far post.

  20. GREAT SAVE!

    Celtic 2-0 Hearts

    Callum McGregor scored a hat-trick in last week's friendly against Sunderland and the Celtic midfielder has a taste for goal, sending a thundering drive that is parried clear by the strong, outstretched hand of Jack Hamilton.
