Referee For Semi-Final Derby Announced

THE SFA have confirmed that Bobby Madden will be the referee for Easter Sunday’s Glasgow Derby match. Running the lines will be Alan Mulvanny and Dougie Potter, with Steven McLean standing between the dugouts.

The Scottish Cup Semi-Final will be a fascinating encounter. Celtic have overcome their rivals twice this year, home and away, and Postecoglou has the chance to make it three if his side defeats The Rangers at Hampden.

This is also an opportunity for Celtic to take their first step towards the treble. With a significant lead in the table and one trophy in the cabinet already, progressing through will give the Hoops a great chance.

If Celtic progress to the final in May, they will meet one of the Edinburgh sides with the other semi-final also a derby match.

Celtic have already overcome Hibs at Hampden this season; a Kyogo brace cancelled out Hibs’ second-half opener. However, going on recent form, Hearts will be the favourites to progress to the final.
