Both sides are in great form heading into the final and that ought to set up some spectacle in the latest instalment of the Old Firm derby at Hampden.
Unbeaten in this fixture in six, including victory in the Scottish Cup final back in May, Celtic certainly have the advantage over Rangers and it’s difficult to look past them on Sunday.
Celtic to win, 2-0.
