CELTIC hammered Motherwell 4-0 last week and are no bigger than 1-4 with the likes of Coral and McBookie.com to repeat the result at Hampden on Saturday.
Neil Lennon is hot favourite to lift his first trophy as boss and I reckon it will be third time lucky for him after narrow misses in the League Cup Final and SPL.
To win in 90 minutes the odds are a bit better at 4-9 with Ladbrokes while Motherwell are 3-1 with William Hill and Paddy Power and 15-2 with the likes of Paddy Power and totesport to win in 90 minutes.
Motherwell were weakened at Parkhead last week and at full strength should give Celtic a much better game.
I can't see it being 4-0 but Lennon and his players are desperate to end the season with a trophy and I reckon that hunger and desire will win the day.
Hoops top scorer Gary Hooper is favourite to net first at Hampden today with McBookie.com going 10-3 but I’m taking Kris Commons at 9-2 with Betfred and McBookie.com.
Commons has banged in goals regularly since signing in January and will be desperate to make up for missing out last week after being sent off for celebrating his late goal at Tynecastle.
Motherwell’s hopes will lie with John Sutton who is 10-1 at bet365 and Hills to break the deadlock.
Scotland Under-21 star Jamie Murphy is 16-1 at bet365 and decent value at 5-1 with Hills to net at any time.
Celts are 15-2 with Hills to win after extra time and 12-1 to win on penalties with Well 28-1 and 14-1.
Celtic are 5-4 with Hills to win to nil with Well 10-1. Both teams to score pays 10-11 with Hills and that looks on as long as Well give it a decent go.
