Celtic vs Aberdeen team news confirmed as Ange Postecoglou gets ...

28 May 2023

Celtic have been giving some of their fringe players opportunities in recent weeks as they look ahead to the Scottish Cup Final at Hampden next week.

It's a big day for Ange Postecoglou as he watches his team lift the Premiership trophy for the second season in a row and it's sure to be a party atmosphere inside Celtic Park for this one. Postecoglou will be hoping to keep players wrapped up in cotton wool ahead of next week and not pick up any injuries so it might not be a classic at Celtic Park today, with neither side having anything to play for.

Aberdeen confirmed their place as best of the rest on Wednesday night and they'll also be hoping for a Celtic win the Scottish Cup Final next week to guarantee them European group stage action until at least Christmas in either the Conference League or the Europa League.

Barry Robson's men will still want to finish the season on a high but given many of their players were partying on Wednesday night following their game, it wouldn't be a surprise to see this be a bit more slow tempo.
