Ange Postecoglou’s men are closing in on regaining the Scottish Premiership, six points clear with just five games remaining.

And they could add insult to injury by beating their Glasgow rivals Rangers in the Scottish Cup semi-finals on Sunday.

Meanwhile, Giovanni van Bronckhorst is looking to become the first manager since 2009 to win the Scottish Cup with Rangers.

Here is everything you need to know about the Old Firm derby.
