CELTIC will learn their Scottish Cup opponents when the draw for the Fourth Round is made tomorrow night.
All 12 Premiership clubs will be in the ballot along with Queen’s Park who beat Linlithgow Rose 3-1 last night while 19 other ties in the national competition will be decided this afternoon.
The Hoops, of course, blew the opportunity of the club’s ninth treble when they lost to Aberdeen on penalty-kicks after a dismal 1-1 draw following extra-time in the silverware shoot-out at Hampden in May.
UP FOR THE CUP…Cameron Carter-Vickers and Kevin Nisbet in an aerial challenge during the Celtic v Aberdeen Scottish Cup Final at Hampden in May.
The Parkhead side had won it the two previous seasons, 3-1 over Invenress Caley Thistle under Ange Postecoglou in 2023 and 1-0 over Rangers a year later with Brendan Rodgers in charge.
However, they unexpectedly stumbled against the Dons in the last game of the term and failed to add the trophy to the Premiership title and the League Cup.
Tomorrow’s draw will be made live on BBC Scotland’s Sportscene at 7.15pm.
It will also be streamed live on BBC iPlayer.
The fourth round ties are due to be played on the weekend of January 17/18 2026.
