Celtic will face Dunfermline in the Scottish FA Cup on 23 May 2026. The fixture comes with three first-team players ruled out for Celtic.

Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is unavailable due to a shoulder injury. Defender Cameron Carter-Vickers is sidelined with Achilles tendon problems, and forward Tomás Cvancara is out with a groin injury.

In their most recent match, against Hearts on 16 May 2026, Celtic started Viljami Sinisalo, Alistair Johnston, Liam Scales, Auston Trusty, Kieran Tierney, Arne Engels, Callum McGregor, Yang Hyun-jun, Benjamin Nygren, Sebastian Tounekti and Daizen Maeda. That lineup featured Sinisalo in goal, with Johnston, Scales, Trusty and Tierney in defence, Engels and McGregor in midfield, and Yang, Nygren, Tounekti and Maeda in attack.

Dunfermline's last starting lineup came in their match against Partick Thistle on 15 May 2026. That side was: Billy Terrell, Shea Kearney, Jeremiah Chilokoa-Mullen, Kieran Ngwenya, Robbie Fraser, Matty Todd, Alfons Amade, Andy Tod, Charlie Gilmour, Chris Kane and Callumn Morrison. Dunfermline will enter the Scottish FA Cup tie on 23 May 2026 looking to draw on that experience against a Celtic side weakened by the absences of Schmeichel, Carter-Vickers and Cvancara.
