Celtic have discovered their opponents for the Scottish Cup semi-final, with Brendan Rodgers’ side set to face St Johnstone at Hampden Park next month.
The Hoops booked their place in the last four after a professional 2-0 victory over Hibernian at Celtic Park on Sunday. Goals from Adam Idah and Daizen Maeda ensured Celtic progressed with minimal fuss, keeping their hopes of a domestic double firmly alive.
It’s been a strong cup campaign so far for Rodgers and his players. Celtic kicked things off with an emphatic 5-0 win over Raith Rovers in the fourth round, before edging past Kilmarnock 2-1 in the fifth round at Rugby Park.
Brendan Rodgers remains unbeaten in the Scottish Cup across his two spells in charge of Celtic. The Irishman has never tasted defeat at Hampden Park as Celtic manager—an encouraging record as the club aims to add more silverware this season.
The semi-final clash with St Johnstone is set to take place on the weekend of April 19th and 20th, with a place in the final up for grabs. Should Celtic advance, they’ll have the opportunity to lift the famous old trophy for a 42nd time.
Further details on kick-off time and ticket allocations for the semi-final will be confirmed in due course. But expect a random kick off time with Premier Sports in charge of the broadcast.
