Hearts will never have a better chance of taking out one of the Old Firm to book up a shot at the other one in the final. Rangers look disjointed and completely dispirited and the last thing they need right now is to come face-to-face with the third best side in the country with another piece of silverware on the line. May go to penalties.

Hearts will surely fancy their chances more now than when the draw was initially made. Rangers go into this match out of form. I can see Rangers grinding out a win but they will be made to fight all the way.

It’s no surprise to see the 10/1 odds available on the Jambos have dropped ssince Rangers’ drab Dens Park draw and they won’t have a better chance to end that astonishing run of having never beaten the Light Blues at Hamden. However, they might need more than the regulation 90 minutes.

This one is on a knifeedge despite what the bookies are saying. Hearts will give it a right go after the powderpuff effort in the last semi-final clash between the sides. But even though Rangers have stuttered badly in recent weeks they just seem to have Hearts’ number. Philippe Clement needs a good win and I reckon he’ll get it.

The heat is on Gers after the last week and they could be put through the wringer here. Hearts will be positive and pose problems but Rangers can scrape through. RangeRs...2 HeaRTs...2 (Rangers to win on penalties)

It’s been a bad week for Rangers, which maybe makes this the worst possible time for Hearts to play them. The Jambos have been second best in each meeting with the Light Blues this term and have never beaten them at Hampden. They’ll make a game of it, unlike the 5-0 gubbing at Ibrox last time out, but Rangers MUST get the job done and will just edge it.
