Celtic have been handed a major boost ahead of facing Rangers with Liel Abada back in training, according to a report.
The Hoops face Michael Beale's men at Hampden for the second time this season as they look to book a Scottish Cup Final place that would make them heavy favourites to complete a domestic Treble. They defeated Rangers 2-1 earlier this year in the League Cup Final while they hold a 12 point lead at the top of the Premiership with just six games to go. A win at the national stadium in just over a week from now would set up a clash with Falkirk or Inverness with the famous old trophy up for grabs.
Abada has been out injured since picking up a hamstring injury while on international duty with Israel but he has returned to training and did light work at Lennoxtown on Thursday but he is unlikely to be risked against Motherwell report the Scottish Sun. The 21-year-old has been linked with Ajax and Benfica this week as talk over his future rumbles on.
