Celtic fans who missed out in the first round of ticket allocations for the Scottish League Cup semi-final against Aberdeen could soon have another chance to secure a seat at Hampden.

The club initially received an allocation of 27,300 tickets—just over half of the available briefs—for the clash with the Dons. Given the high demand, tickets were balloted among fans in the Home Cup Ticket Scheme. As expected, Celtic sold out their allocation quickly, leaving many fans disappointed and without a ticket.

Aberdeen were given a larger allocation than the 12,000 they’ve sold so far, but they’ve struggled to shift their full share of tickets. Currently, looking at Aberdeen’s ticketing app, the B4-B8 sections of Hampden are greyed out, meaning they’re not available for sale right now. These areas are typically reserved in case demand from Aberdeen fans spikes, but as things stand, there’s little indication that will happen.

Unless there’s a sudden surge in demand from Dons supporters, it’s looking increasingly likely that these sections will be handed over to Celtic. This could give those fans who missed out in the initial ballot another opportunity to grab a ticket.

For now, it’s a waiting game, but the chances of more tickets being made available to Celtic supporters seem promising. If Aberdeen fail to sell out their allocation, expect an announcement from the club soon offering a second bite at the cherry for the Hoops faithful. Keep an eye on official channels for any updates.
