Hampden will be packed as Celtic and Rangers go head-to-head for the season’s first silverware.
The Premier Sports Cup is on the line with both clubs determined to give their supporters an early Christmas present by bringing the historic trophy home with them. Victory against Aberdeen in last year’s Hampden showpiece was Rangers‘ first League Cup triumph since 2011, when an extra time Nikica Jelavic goal secured the trophy – and boss Philippe Clement will be determined to build on their strong recent showings by ensuring the silverware remains in Govan for another 12 months.
Old foes Celtic however will head to Hampden brimming with confidence after an almost flawless campaign to date. Brendan Rodgers’ men have lost just one of their 24 games this season – against Bundesliga big-guns Borussia Dortmund in the Champions League – and brushed aside Rangers 3-0 at Parkhead in the first derby of the season back in September. The Hoops have won the League Cup seven times in the past 10 seasons, and will be determined to ensure that they bring the trophy back across Glasgow.
With both sides in strong form, and silverware on the line, it’s sure to be a barnstormer – and Record Sport has all the details to make sure you don’t miss a moment of drama.
