Motherwell v Celtic on TV: Channel, kick-off time and live stream details for Premier Sports Cup tie

The Premier Sports Cup takes centre stage this midweek as Motherwell and Celtic battle it out for a place in the semi-final and a spot at Hampden.

Ange Postecoglou lifted the trophy last season in his first major triumph as Hoops gaffer and he will be determined to make it two in a row in the competition. They go into this one flying after a thumping 6-1 win over Hibs in the Premiership. James Forrest hit a hat-trick and with that reached 100 goals for the club with Giorgos Giakoumakis hitting a double and Daizen Maeda also on target.

Steven Hammell and his troops lost out in the Sunday lunchtime kick off to Rangers at Fir Park with Malik Tillman's superb solo goal and a header from John Lundstram proving the difference. Stuart McKinstry flighted a free-kick over the head of Allan McGregor to spark hopes of a comeback but the home side were unable to force a second goal.
