Where will Rangers vs Celtic Scottish Cup semi-final be won and lost and who will finish top scorer? Monday Jury
KEITH JACKSON: It'll be a toss of the coin job at Hampden but Celtic have an edge over their rivals in terms of quality. The injury to Reo Hatate - and doubts over the fitness of Jota - will be a huge concern for Ange Postecoglou. But Celtic should have enough in reserve to get the job done.

KEITH JACKSON: All the candidates are in Celtic’s dressing room. Kyogo outstanding contribution can be measured in goals, Jota adds flair and artistry, Cameron Carter-Vickers is a rock at the back. But Callum McGregor knits this team together from the middle of the pitch. He gets my vote.
Are Rangers right to rage over Parkhead calls and is the Hampden heat now on Michael Beale? Monday Jury
KEITH JACKSON: Yes. Unfortunately, Kevin Clancy simply isn't up to the job. But when his VAR is even less competent then what chance does the guy have? The decision to chalk off the Alfredo Morelos 'goal' reflects horribly on our officials. DAVID McCARTHY: Absolutely. Morelos' goal should have stood and the first goal in these games are almost always crucial. MICHAEL GANNON : Rangers are entitled to feel hard done by. The ruled out goal was harsh but the ref’s view made it understandable. They had a decent case for a penalty but there was no sign of handball for the second. FRASER WILSON: Most weeks some club or other will contact the SFA over a refereeing decision or two. What good it does I’m not sure. The Morelos disallowed goal was harsh as both players had hands on each other. But I can’t see anything wrong with Celtic’s second goal.
