Celtic and Rangers battle for the season’s first trophy as the Old Firm rivals contest the Scottish League Cup final.
The 79th edition of the competition pits the 21-time winners and favourites against the holders, with Rangers securing their 28th triumph against Aberdeen last December.
Celtic are surging clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership, already eleven points clear of their Glasgow foes having won 14 of their first 15 games.
