THE kick-off time for Celtic's friendly match against Everton this month has been changed.

The Hoops will travel to Australia later in November to take part in the Sydney Super Cup. 

Ange Postecoglou will return to his homeland Down Under during the World Cup break. 

Celtic will use the opportunity to play from friendly matches during the five-week mid-season pause to keep their players ticking over ahead of the re-start just prior to Christmas.

They will take on Everton in Sydney’s Accor Stadium on Sunday, November 20.

And the kick-off time for that game has been moved to an earlier local time of 2.45pm (3.45am UK time). The match was originally scheduled to take place at 8.05pm local time.

It's part of a three-match series which will also see Sydney FC and Western Sydney Wanderers compete with the Scottish and English giants.

The Hoops' first match comes against the former on November 17 at the newly-opened Allianz Stadium.

The new Sydney Super Cup will be a bi-annual football event held in Sydney which will bring some Europe’s top teams to New South Wales every two years.
