Celtic host Hibs in last eight of Scottish Cup, Hearts meet Dundee

Scottish Cup holders Celtic will be at home to Hibernian in the quarter-finals of this season’s competition.

Hearts, who progressed with a penalty shootout win over St Mirren prior to the draw, host Dundee, while St Johnstone go to Livingston.

Queen’s Park knocked Rangers out of the tournament on Sunday and are rewarded with a trip to Aberdeen.

The ties will be played on the weekend of 8/9 March.

Celtic are looking to make it three in a row and have won the trophy six times since Hibs’ triumph in 2016.

St Johnstone last lifted the cup in 2021, the same year they beat Livingston in the League Cup final.

Hearts have lost in three finals since hammering Hibs in the 2012 showpiece, while Dundee’s sole success came in 1910.

Queen’s Park, fifth in the Championship, may not have won the competition since 1893 but, with 10 successes, remain third on the all-time list behind Celtic and Rangers.

Aberdeen have not won the competition since 1990.
