Scottish Cup Semi-Final

Live coverage of the Scottish Cup semi-final between Hibernian and Dundee United. Plus a look ahead to tomorrow's other semi-final between Rangers and Celtic.

Scottish Cup semi-final.

Live coverage of Hibernian v Dundee Utd from the National Stadium, Hampden.

A place in the Scottish Cup final is at stake as Championship side Hibs take on Dundee Utd from the Premiership.

Supporters of the Leith club will be hoping that manager Alan Stubbs can lead his side to their second final of the season and make up for the disappointment of losing the League Cup final a month ago by going on to lift the oldest national trophy in world football. Yet the Easter Road faithful don't need to be reminded that their last Scottish Cup win was way back in 1902, and that they have lost 10 finals since, most recently in 2013. In the last round of the Cup, they defeated holders Inverness Caledonian Thistle 2-1 in a replay, thanks to goals from on-loan striker Anthony Stokes.

Their opponents today are Mixu Paatelainen's Dundee Utd, who are fighting to avoid relegation from the Scottish Premiership. Against that backdrop, the Tannadice club have put together a winning run in the Cup, defeating Airdrie, Partick Thistle and Ross County en route to today's match. The Tangerines have taken the old trophy back to Tayside twice before, in 1994 and most recently in 2010. Their last appearance in the final was two seasons ago, when they lost to St Johnstone.

Plus a look ahead to tomorrow's much-anticipated meeting of Rangers and Celtic in the second semi-final.

Introduced by Rob Maclean with studio guests Pat Nevin and Mark Wilson.
