By the way Nicola Sturgeon was talking today, this may be one of the last football games with full capacity crowds in attendance for a short while. The new variant is causing worry with the Leader and she is prepared to place Scotland into some form of lockdown to flatten the spike of Omicron cases.
Celtic will take just about 30,000 fans to the game, Hibs will take under 19,000 with their ticket allocation yet to sell out.
Postecoglou and his team will be playing to win their first piece of silverware under his management. This could also be the first trophy Callum McGregor lifts as Celtic captain.
