Summary
Ref: Celtic games on Christmas Eve
First match: Celtic 3-2 Third Lanark, 1892, Friendly
Celtic have had numerous games on Christmas Eve, although much less often than Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
Apart from the first match, these have all been League games. In fact, the first game (1892) was supposed to be in the Glasgow Cup match but an official fixture was not played due to poor weather.
Aberdeen have been a bit of a bogey team for Celtic on this day: in three games, Celtic have lost twice and drawn once.
