Chris Sutton and Michael Stewart will be part of the Premier Sports coverage of tonight’s Scottish Cup tie between Dundee United and Celtic. 

The subscription broadcaster seems to lean heavily on BT Sport for their coverage with Sutton and Stewart well respected by the Celtic fans who will tune in tonight with the away ticket allocation reduced to around 2,000 of the Tannadice capacity. 

BBC Scotland have recently been heavily criticised by Celtic fans, firstly Tom English was instructed to delete a tweet which didn’t meet editorial standards, last weekend the Sportscene panel of Steven Thompson, Kenny Miller and Richard Foster were heavily criticised for their coverage of the win away to Livingston. 

Coverage from Premier starts at 7.15pm tonight, half an hour before kick-off with radio coverage available from the BBC. The match will be played to a finish and followed by the semi-final draw.

Celtic go into the match with the benefit of a nine-day break since their last fixture and looking to win the Scottish Cup for the fifth time in six seasons.
