Scottish Cup 4th Round live on BBC & Premier Sports

Four matches will be broadcast live across BBC Scotland and Premier Sports on Scottish Cup Fourth Round weekend on 16-18 April, including the Old Firm clash between Rangers and Celtic.

The match schedule has been adjusted to avoid clashing with the funeral of Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, which will be held at 3pm on Saturday, 17 April,

The action begins on Friday, 16 April, with Forfar Athletic hosting Dundee United at Station Park, a match which will be broadcast live and free-to-air on the BBC Scotland channel.

The tie between Aberdeen and Livingston, which was due to be played on Sunday, has been brought forward to Saturday teatime, kicking off at 5.30pm and broadcast live on Premier Sports.

Stranraer and Hibernian go head-to-head in the second BBC-televised fixture of the weekend, which has been moved to a Sunday lunchtime kick-off on BBC One Scotland.

This will be followed later on Sunday by the rearranged Rangers v Celtic clash at Ibrox, which will now be played on Sunday afternoon at 3pm, broadcast exclusively live on Premier Sports.

All three BBC Scotland-televised matches will be available to watch across the UK via BBC iPlayer and the BBC Sport website, while the Premier Player will live stream Premier Sports’ matches (subscription required).

In addition to the live matches, there will be Sportscene highlights programmes on Saturday and Sunday nights on BBC One Scotland, covering all of the weekend’s action, with Saturday’s show featuring extended highlights of Rangers against Celtic.

BBC Scotland and Premier Sports will share live coverage of the rescheduled competition through to the final at Hampden Park on 22 May.

Due to the tight fixture schedule, the fifth round draw also took place alongside the fourth round draw, so each side will know by the end of the weekend who they will face in the last eight.

Full broadcast details and kick-off times for all of the televised Scottish Cup fourth round ties can be found below.
