Celtic will face St Mirren in the Scottish Gas Scottish Cup semi-finals.

The draw for the last four also pitted fierce rivals Dunfermline and Falkirk together.

Celtic will have the chance to avenge their Premier Sports Cup final defeat by Saints five months on from losing 3-1 to Stephen Robinson's team.

The Hoops progressed to Hampden again after beating Rangers on penalties at Ibrox following a goalless draw that was overshadowed by on-pitch clashes involving fans after the game.

St Mirren later secured a 2-1 win over Partick Thistle thanks to goals from Dan Nlundulu and Jake Young.

Neil Lennon's Dunfermline will be looking to claim a third Premiership scalp after beating Aberdeen 3-0 on Saturday night, having knocked out Hibernian.

The Pars last reached the semi-finals in 2009 - when they lost 2-0 to Falkirk, who knocked out Dundee United on Friday night.

The two games will take place at Hampden on the weekend of April 18-19.
