Over 3.5 Cards

With heated rivals Rangers and Celtic sharing a pitch, the 2022/23 Scottish League Cup Final promises to be a fiery occasion and with tempers likely to flare, bettors should expect plenty of cards to be handed out at Hampden Park. 15 cautions were brandished in the last three encounters between the Glasgow giants and Sunday’s clash should be filled with just as many crunching tackles and cynical fouls. With those factors aligned, backing over 3.5 cards could be the way to go.

Rangers vs Celtic Team News & Injuries

Read all of the latest injury updates, Rangers vs Celtic lineups and team news for Sunday’s Premiership battle below.

Rangers

John Souttar, Filip Helander, Steven Davis, Tom Lawrence and Nnamdi Ofoborh are all out injured for Rangers at present. The Gers’ 3-0 win at Livingston last time out pushed their run of successive victories in all competitions to nine games. However, the Premiership title still seems out of reach for Rangers this season.

Predicted Lineup for Rangers: McGregor – Tavernier, Goldson, Davies, Barisic – Raskin, Kamara, Sakala, Cantwell, Kent – Morelos

Celtic

David Turnbull faces a few weeks on the sidelines with a knock, while James McCarthy remains doubtful with a hamstring problem. Celtic have won ten games on the bounce in Scotland, sharing their victories across matches in the league and cup. The Bhoys are targeting a clean sweep of domestic trophies in 2022/23.

Predicted Lineup for Celtic: Hart – Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Starfelt, Taylor – O’Riley, McGregor, Hatate – Jota, Maeda, Furuhashi

Player to Watch – Reo Hatate

Celtic’s Reo Hatate could be one to watch closely in Sunday’s cup final. The 25-year-old managed to score a brace in each of his last two appearances for The Hoops and the Japanese schemer should be armed with plenty of confidence this weekend as a result. Hatate has already scored two goals in games against Rangers before.

Starting Lineups

Official lineups are usually released approximately one hour before kick-off.
