Celtic head into Saturday’s Scottish Cup clash against Raith Rovers full of confidence after dismantling Dundee 6-0 at Celtic Park on Wednesday night. Brendan Rodgers’ side were relentless, putting the visitors to the sword with a dominant display that showcased their attacking depth.
The Hoops are defending their Scottish Cup crown after last season’s dramatic final victory over Rangers at Hampden, where Adam Idah netted a last-gasp winner in the 90th minute to seal the trophy. With another cup run in motion, Celtic will be determined to avoid any slip-ups and keep their domestic treble hopes alive.
However, with a colossal Champions League tie against Bayern Munich looming just days later, Rodgers is expected to shuffle his pack. Squad rotation will be key to keeping players fresh for the European showdown, meaning some key names could be rested against Raith. But even with changes, Celtic should have more than enough firepower to book their place in the next round.
