The sides will meet for the second consecutive week, this time in the first domestic knockout competition of the season
Celtic and Hibs will battle it out for the second week in a row with east meeting west in the Premier Sports Cup on Sunday following their Scottish Premiership clash seven days earlier.
The Scottish League Cup was the only one Brendan Rodgers failed to get his hands on last season and the Irishman will be hoping to put that right having lost at this stage last season against Kilmarnock at Rugby Park. He has some selection issues with Kyogo a doubt after picking up a shoulder injury against Hibs who will be unable to field latest midfield loan recruit Kwon Hyeok-kyu against his parent club. Here's all you need to know about the big game.
Is the game on TV? Yes, the game is being shown on Premier Sports in the UK, with coverage beginning on Premier Sports 1 at 2.30pm.
