Chris Sutton watched Celtic’s 2-1 win at Hamilton and hasn’t a clue about next week’s team to face Sevco in the semi-final of the Scottish Cup.

Brendan Rodgers made five changes to the side that drew 0-0 with Dundee in midweek and again used all three substitutes.

Moussa Dembele should have put Celtic in front within 10 seconds of the kick-off with half time substitute Leigh Griffiths showing his eye for goal be netting his 98th Celtic goal within a minute of replacing Jack Hendry.

Callum McGregor opened the scoring in the third minute but Rakish Bingham equalised 15 minutes later.

Griffiths looks ready to start a game after three substitute appearances but with his track record against Sevco Dembele is likely to start at Hampden.

Today’s win takes Celtic just three points away from a seventh title but from the final whistle today the whole focus has titled towards Hampden with Rodgers’ side just two wins away from a second treble.
