Celtic will face Rangers in the semi-finals of the Scottish Cup, live on Sky Sports, with holders Hibernian facing Aberdeen in the other tie.

The two Glasgow clubs will meet for the fifth time this season at Hampden Park on Sunday, 23 April with a 12.00 kick-off.

Runaway Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic have beaten their old rivals three times already this season, but when the teams met at the same stage of the cup last year it was Rangers, then in the Championship, who came out on top after extra-time and penalties.

Hibernian who went on to win the competition in thrilling fashion, though, and the holders will face an Aberdeen side who sit second in the Premiership table in the other semi-final. That match will also be on Sky Sports on Saturday, 22 April with a 12.15 kick-off.
