Press Release: Post-split fixtures

SPFL announces Scottish Premiership schedule for rounds 34-38

The SPFL has today (22 March) published the post-split fixture list for the 2020/21 Scottish Premiership season, which resumes next month following the international break and Scottish Cup round three.

The schedule for the 30 games across the final five fixture rounds has now been confirmed, with matches to be played on the weekend of April 10/11, the midweek of April 20/21, the weekend of May 1/2, the midweek of May 11/12 and the weekend of May 15/16.

This season’s final weekend will see the top-six fixtures take place on Saturday May 15, with Sky Sports covering the match between Rangers and Aberdeen, kick-off 12.30pm. Sky Sports will also broadcast the final Rangers v Celtic league match of the season, on Sunday May 2, kick-off 12 noon. Further live TV selections may be announced in due course.

The Premiership bottom six will conclude on Sunday May 16, with the two legs of the Premiership play-off final to follow, on Wednesday May 19 and Sunday May 23.

SPFL Company Secretary and Director of Operations Calum Beattie said: “Since its introduction in 2000/01, the split has become an exciting feature of the Scottish Premiership season and the release of the Premiership post-split fixtures is always a key date in the SPFL calendar.

“It is often the case that the top six places are not confirmed until the final pre-split weekend and this was again the case this season, with St Johnstone securing their top-six spot on Saturday. Fans have been eagerly awaiting the announcement of the post-split fixtures and we are all looking forward to an exciting conclusion to the season, with the race for European places and the battle to avoid relegation set to go down to the wire.

“I would like to wish all 12 Premiership clubs the very best for their remaining matches and hope the supporters enjoy their football in the coming weeks.”
