Aberdeen vs Celtic LIVE as Callum McGregor and Liam Scales return for holders

Brendan Rodgers made Hampden a home from home for Celtic during his first spell as boss at Parkhead and is looking to continue that record on his return.

But Aberdeen will have something to say about that as they look to shock the Scottish Cup holders and move a step closer to getting their hands on the trophy for the first time in 34 years.

Peter Leven remains in interim charge at Pittodrie with Jimmy Thelin appointed in midweek but not starting work until June. Will the Dons players give a bit extra with the Swede now watching from afar?

Either way, it will take a huge effort to emerge victorious with Celtic clicking into gear at just the right time after Rodgers said his Hoops are coming "alive" at the business end of the campaign.

Rodgers lifted this famous old trophy twice as Celtic boss in his first stint and few would bet against him making it a hat-trick.

Aberdeen: Roos, Devlin, MacKenzie, Gartenmann, McGrath, Barron, Miovski, Clarkson, Duk, Polvara, MacDonald Subs: Doohan, Jensen, Phillips, Sokler, Morris, Duncan, Milne, Hoilett, Rubezic

Celtic: Hart, Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Taylor, McGregor, O'Riley, Hatate, Yang, Kuhn, Kyogo Subs: Bain, Palma, Idah, Nawrocki, Iwata, Bernardo, Kelly, Forrest, Ralston

Graeme Shinnie is of course absent for the Dons after picking up that gut-wrenching late booking in the quarter final win over Kilmarnock at Pittodrie and Angus MacDonald will be the man to lead out Peter Leven's side.

It's certainly a strong looking Celtic line-up but maybe Maik Nawrocki can count himself a little unlucky at dropping to the bench with Liam Scales going straight back into the side to face the club
