US boss Anthony Hudson is sending right-hand man BJ Callaghan to Hampden to run the rule over his Old Firm hopefuls.
The American assistant is heading to Glasgow for Sunday’s Viaplay Cup final hoping to catch Celtic defender Cameron Carter-Vicker sin action against Rangers pair James Sands and Malik Tillman. But he may have to content himself with only getting a glimpse of his Hoops ace, with Tillman a major doubt for the cup final clash and Sands unlikely to start. The timing of Tillman’s knock couldn’t come worse as the on-loan Bayern Munich star looks to force his way back into Hudson's squad.
The 20-year-old Ibrox playmaker was left out of the American’s World Cup squad but has responded to that Qatar disappointment by turning in a series of impressive displays for new Gers boss Michael Beale. Sands was also left behind as the US squad that reached the last 16 despite being a regular for the Light Blues during the first half of the season but he has started just three games since Steven Gerrard’s former sidekick returned to Glasgow.
