Celtic won't take St Mirren lightly, says Brendan Rodgers

Brendan Rodgers insists Celtic will not underestimate St Mirren as the Championship side look to claim a Scottish Cup upset on Sunday, live on Sky Sports.

The Hoops have won all but one of their domestic games this season while they have not been denied victory at Celtic Park by another Scottish club since last April, when Ross County drew 1-1.

Celtic are on a 16-game winning run in all competitions while St Mirren are bottom of the Scottish Championship but Rodgers says the Premiership champions' preparations for the quarter-final have been no different.

He said: "It's the same focus every game. It is another great game for us at home. We love to play at home.

"St Mirren have earned the right, they have had a difficult period in the league this season.

"They have changed the manager, but have made some signings in January which has helped and boosted them.

"They have had a couple of good results of late and beat Hibs in the week which will be a real confidence-booster for them and, on Sunday, they will look to give their all to get a result.

"But for us, like I say, the focus is very much on ourselves.

"We will prepare exactly the same and, like I say, no more or less focus. We want to progress into the semi-final."
