New Hoops boss Wilfried Nancy is searching for his first piece of silverware since he took over the reins last week.
The Frenchman arrived at Celtic Park to replace cult hero Martin O’Neill, who had returned to the club – and management – upon the resignation of Brendan Rodgers.
O’Neill managed to steady what had been a turbulent ship, but the pressure is back on Nancy, who became the first ever Celtic boss to lose his first two games in charge.
The Bhoys were beaten 2-1 by Hearts in Nancy’s Scottish Premiership bow, and then were comfortably swept aside 3-0 by Roma in the Europa League in midweek.
Now, they face a spirited St Mirren side for the first trophy of the campaign.
St Mirren, led by Stephen Robinson, are sat ninth in the Scottish Premiership table, and reached the Hampden Park spectacle with a rampant 4-1 victory over high-flying Motherwell in the last four. They scraped past Kilmarnock on penalties in the quarter-finals.
