Celtic begin their new league campaign at home to Ross County. After starting the match well, the visitors fell behind when Celtic's full back, Taylor was tripped just inside the box. A fortunate start for Celtic but they took full advantage and before half time had raced into a 3-0 lead.
County kept up their good level of play in the second half and were rewarded with two goals to reduce Celtic's overall advantage to two.
Pre-match Celtic raised their 53rd league flag for their efforts of last season.
