Match preview

For the second time this week, Celtic and Heart of Midlothian go head to head.

On Wednesday night, these two clubs met in the Premiership at Parkhead, with Hearts taking a shock lead in Glasgow through Josh Ginnelly.

Nevertheless, Celtic fought back to win 3-1 with Daizen Maeda, Kyogo Furuhashi and Sead Hakšabanović all on target.

This time in the Scottish Cup, will this one go the same way?

So far in this competition, the Jambos have enjoyed a memorable Edinburgh derby victory over fierce rivals Hibs, before swatting aside Hamilton Accies in round five.

Robbie Neilson’s side are currently third in the league, on course for another season of guaranteed UEFA group stage football.

So, will they knockout the league-leaders and set up another trip to Hampden?

Celtic themslves won four successive Scottish Cups between 2017 and 2020, but haven’t reached the final since the start of the pandemic.

Ange Postecoglou’s side have scored five times in both ties to get this far, smashing Greenock Morton and then St Mirren, both at home.

This though will be a far tougher assignment but, given that the Hoops have won 25 of their last 26 domestic matches, drawing the other, it’s one they’re likely to negotiate.

Celtic won 4-3 when they last visited Tynecastle in mid-October, so will this cup tie be equally as thrilling?
