Celtic vs Rangers Bet Builder: FA Cup, Sunday April 17th
I’ve gone for a Sunday afternoon bet builder at odds of 7.50, as Rangers take on Celtic at Hampden Park and with an invite to the Scottish Cup final awaiting the winner, there are more than local bragging rights up for grabs.

One cup in the bag, the league within touching distance and a trip to Hampden this weekend, that is the tale of the tape for Celtic right now and with Ange Postecoglou loving life in Scotland, he will now look to move one step closer to overseeing a treble at the end of the season.
Something that Rangers will love to put a stop to and after losing the latest iteration of the Old Firm derby only recently, this is the last genuine attempt for Giovanni Van Bronckhorst’s men to spoil the party.
While it is the former Dutch international who has already come in for some form of criticism and after taking the reins from Steven Gerrard earlier in the season, he has also witnessed Celtic overturn a previous points deficit over Rangers.
Which is not an act that has been welcomed in the blue half of the city and with direct entry to next season’s Champions League acting as an additional prize, there is a feeling of opportunity missed within Ibrox circles.

Of course, the league race is still a mathematical concern and that is something that can be attended to next weekend, for this coming weekend sees the two titans of the Scottish game square off in another pulsating battle.
A battle that even though it will be the fourth of five Old Firm duels this season, does not mean it is any less anticipated or contested and with these two clubs always being in the silverware mix in Scotland, only one can face Edinburgh opposition in the final.
Whether Hearts or Hibernian are awaiting around the corner is almost immaterial at this point, as both sets of players and their respective managers will be looking to come out on top in this rather feisty affair.
Which means the cards market is arguably of greater interest than usual and with both teams to collect at least two each being priced at odds of 1.66, that must surely be worth your consideration before the main event.
Then again, when it comes to the outcome itself, it is hard to look past Celtic taking another huge step towards the treble and at odds of 6/5 (2.20) to win in 90 minutes, I cannot see Rangers playing the role of party-poopers either.

Before the weekend, I have plumped for a Celtic win in 90 minutes and more than one card per team. While in terms of goals, I think Kyogo Furuhashi will find one of Celtic’s goals, as Rangers manage to find at least one of their own at the other end.

WHAT IS A BET BUILDER?
A bet builder is a kind of accumulator bet solely focussed on one match. A standard acca features multiple selections across different selections combined together into one bet. If one selection loses, the whole bet loses. A bet builder is similar but each selection is placed on the same match. Similar to the American prop bet, the bet builder goes into detail on a single match. Common selections include match outcome, total goals, cards, corners, and players to score.
