Celtic hosts Scottish Premiership title winners Rangers on Sunday.
OneFootball has agreed a distribution deal with the Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL) to live stream Scottish football in selected markets.
This includes the Old Firm derby on Sunday, as well as the remainder of the season in various formats. The partnership, facilitated by Infront, sees the reach extend to over 160 territories.
Selected top games from each round of matches streamed for free in France, Spain and Canada. Meanwhile in Belgium, Luxembourg, Netherlands and Switzerland, fans will be able to stream matches on a pay-per-view basis. Digital clips will also be available to OneFootball users at the conclusion of each match.
Lucas von Cranach, CEO and foudner of OneFootball, said: “The Old Firm derby is one of the most historic games in world football and the perfect way to launch our new partnership with the Scottish Professional Football League. Our new agreement continues to democratise football by giving our young audience of football fans a new way to engage with Scottish football and provides the SPFL with new avenues to increase viewership and engagement.”
One of the first matches available will be Celtic v Rangers at Celtic Park on Sunday. There has been controversy in the build up to the encounter over whether Celtic should give a guard of honour to their rivals following Rangers’ Scottish Premiership title win earlier this month.
