Rangers' clash with Aberdeen which was postponed following the Queen's death has been rescheduled for Tuesday December 20. Celtic 's visit of Livingston, meanwhile, has been pencilled in for Wednesday December 21.
Both games were due to be played on the weekend of September 10 but were pushed back as a mark of respect after the monarch passed away. The entire round of SPFL fixtures was called off and clubs have slowly been announcing new dates as the fixture calendar plays catch-up.
Given how packed the schedule is between now and the World Cup break, fitting rearranged games in had been a challenge and clubs have been left to their own devices to find a date that suits both teams. But there were no available slots before the November 12 shutdown for either Celtic or Rangers due to their involvement in the Champions League group stage.
