Dundee begin Premiership rebuild at Celtic, unbeaten in opening-day home games for 76 years

Dundee start the 2026 Scottish Premiership season away at Celtic, who have not lost an opening-day home fixture in nearly 76 years, per Pressley. The task is steeper after summer departures: defenders Graham and Koumetio, goalkeeper McCracken, and three loanees gone. Pressley, who signed a new 12-month rolling contract on July 30, warned of "still a lot of pain ahead."
