Premier Sports Cup draw LIVE as Celtic have one foot in the semis alongside Rangers, Motherwell and St Mirren

He's by no means off the hook, but Russell Martin will breathe a little easier after guiding Rangers into the semi-finals of the Premier Sports Cup.

A 2-0 win over Hibs amid fan protests and a deluge of bouncy balls sees Martin live to fight another week in the Ibrox dugout.

Going on to lift this trophy would go a long way to getting the fans back on board, but there's plenty of football to be played before we get to that stage.

Celtic make the short trip to Partick Thistle in the last quarter-final tie of the weekend with the winners completing the last four lineup.

After missing out on a Treble last term, Brendan Rodgers is determined to bag one in what is, as things stand, his final season in charge of the Hoops, and this is the first step.

Stephen Robinson had a 100 per cent record in semi-finals as Motherwell boss, and has the chance to keep it up with St Mirren after they beat Kilmarnock in a penalty shoot-out on Friday night.

And he could end up facing his former club after the Steelmen piled on the misery for Jimmy Thelin by beating Aberdeen by a single goal at Pittodrie.

We'll have all the build up and the draw itself LIVE on the blog, so stick with us.

And another.

This time it's Liam Scales who gets his head on another Nygren cross.]

He runs across the front pist and glances a header past Budinaickas and Brendan Rodgers' side are well in control.

Celtic take the lead in the last quarter-final of the weekend.

Benjamin Nygren stands a cross up to the back post and Yang is there to head home.

Sebatsian Tounekti is then denied a quick fire second as the holders look to take command of their last eight tie.
