The season kicks off with the four reigning champions at home and all 42 clubs will benefit from a home match on one of the key festive dates of December 26 or January 2 (again, fixtures subject to movement pending TV selections).
Those Boxing Day fixtures include a Glasgow v Edinburgh double header of Hearts v Celtic and Rangers v Hibernian, while there are a number of derbies scheduled for the first match-day of the New Year.

Alex Donohue of Ladbrokes said: “This is an exciting moment for our partnership with the SPFL and one of the most anticipated announcements in the Scottish footballing calendar.
