Scottish Cup winners Celtic continue their title defence against Aberdeen in the semi-finals at Hampden Park this weekend.

The Hoops make the short trip across Glasgow in fine form, after sticking three goals past St Mirren without reply in last weekend’s Scottish Premiership fixture to make it five games in a row without being beaten.

Aberdeen, under the interim management of Peter Leven until Elfsborg head coach Jimmy Thelin takes up the reins in the summer, are also going well, as they are unbeaten in their last four league games – but their two most recent outings have failed to yield a goal.

Celtic head into the clash with a distinct edge over their opponents in the 2023/24 campaign, having won two of their three meetings, although the Dons earned a point in the most recent match between the teams in February.

While Celtic are the most successful side in the history of the competition with 41 titles, Aberdeen have not won the Scottish Cup since 1990. Could this be the year their long wait comes to an end?
