The officiating team for Celtic's upcoming match against Falkirk has been confirmed, with Chris Graham to oversee the action on Saturday, August 29.

Martin O'Neill's side host Falkirk in the fourth weekend of the 2026/27 campaign, with kick-off at 3pm.

It will be Graham’s first appointment as the on-field referee for a Celtic fixture this season, as he did not take charge of any of their matches during the 2025/26 campaign.

However, he was involved in Celtic’s 2-0 victory over Falkirk at Celtic Park in April, operating as VAR while Ryan Lee officiated on the pitch.

Conversely, Graham has already refereed Falkirk this season, taking charge of their goalless draw away to Motherwell at Fir Park on August 9.

He will be assisted by Dougie Potter and David Dunne, while Alastair Grieve has been appointed as fourth official.

VAR duties will be handled by Greg Aitken, with Sean Carr serving as assistant VAR at Clydesdale House.
