Celtic vs Inverness CT: Live stream, TV channel, kick-off time & where to watch Scottish Cup final

Celtic are set to take on Inverness in the 150th Scottish Cup final at Hampden Park on Saturday evening.

The Hoofs are geared up to win their fifth domestic treble in seven seasons. Ange Postecoglou's troops have been in sensational form this season and have already bagged the Premiership title with four games to spare. They have also won the Scottish League Cup after defeating bitter rivals Rangers 2-1 in the final.

They head into this fixture after recording a 5-0 win over Aberdeen in their final league match last weekend.

Celtic have got the better of Greenock Morton, St Mirren, Hearts and Rangers en route to the final and will hope to complete the treble by winning a record 41st Scottish Cup title.

Meanwhile, Inverness became the first team outside of the Premiership to reach the final after seven years courtesy of their win against Falkirk in the semifinals to set up a summit clash with Celtic.

They will be hopeful of staging an upset as they have already beaten two top-tier clubs in Livingston and Kilmarnock in the fifth round and in the quarter-final of this tournament.

Inverness were last involved in competitive action on May 5 against Ayr United in their final Championship match and head into the title decider refreshed and motivated.

Here GOAL brings you everything you need to know about how to watch, including TV channel, streaming details and more.
