Celtic 2, Kilmarnock 1 - 18th January, 2025

Closer than it needed to be but some important players get back to form

Cup ties are just for the winning but performance was also of importance given the week ahead.

A couple of players who have had an off day (and days in some cases) got back to form as Kilmarnock survived many home chances going awry.

There were five packing centurions and three players got well over one expected scoring contribution.

One player was successful with 21 challenges and interceptions and another unsuccessful in 17.

Remember, none of the public data vendors provide detailed Scottish Cup coverage and so this is the ONLY place for this level of statistical coverage.
