DONE DEAL;Aberdeen vs Celtic Scottish Cup, kick-off time and venue has been rescheduled recently

Celtic stand on the brink of yet another Treble but Aberdeen will be fired up to end 35 years of hurt when they take on the Hoops in the Scottish Cup Final.

The Dons haven’t got their hands on this trophy since beating the Hoops on penalties back in 1990 so they will be desperate to give the long-suffering Red Army some overdue Hampden joy.

But Jimmy Thelin’s side are in dismal form heading into the showpiece, losing their final four league games to finish in a disappointing fifth place.

One of those defeats was a 5-1 Pittodrie thrashing by a second-string Celtic side, with a full house of tips landing for our man Mark.

The Hoops also dished out a savage 6-0 beating in the League Cup semi-final and finished the league season 39 points ahead of the Dons. So it’s easy to see why the bookies make Brendan Rodgers’ men red-hot favourites.

Celtic weren’t at their best last weekend as they signed off with a 1-1 draw at home to St Mirren, with James Forrest bringing up a scorer bet for Mark in the dying seconds.

But Rodgers will have his players ready for Hampden as they bid to finish off another memorable season in style.

With Aberdeen in such poor form, they are BoyleSports’ 5/1 outsiders to lift the trophy and 7/1 to win inside 90 minutes. Celtic are 1/9 to come out on top and the odds only increase to 2/7 for them to finish the job in normal time. The draw at 90 minutes pays 4/1.

You have to go all the way back to 2018 for Aberdeen’s last win over Celtic, with the Hoops unbeaten in the last 30 meetings.
