Celtic beat Dundee 2-1 after extra time to progress to the sixth round of the Scottish Cup. Late goals from Junior and Adamu and Sebastian Tounekti cancelled out Ethan Hamilton’s strike. Dunfermline beat Kelty Hearts 2-0 and Partick Thistle beat Elgin City 3-2 in the two other cup games.

Former Liverpool midfielder Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain signed for Celtic yesterday. Celtic manager Martin O’Neill said:

We are really pleased to bring Alex to Celtic. He still has so much to offer the game, and I am sure he can add another dimension to us with his great ability and wealth of experience in the game.

This is not quite team news, but recent Liverpool signing, Jeremy Jacquet suffered a shoulder injury during Rennes 3-1 defeat at the hands of Lens on Saturday. The French defender is set to join Liverpool at the end of the season. Who else should Liverpool sign this summer?

The second rivalry is between Liverpool and Manchester City.

The two teams have dominated the last decade of English football and this game would customarily be a mouthwatering top of the table clash. Things have changed somewhat with Jürgen Klopp no longer at the helm and a Manchester City team in transition. Read Jonathan Wilson’s piece about how the mighty have fallen here.

Looking ahead then, we’ve got two rivalries in the Premier League today.

First, Crystal Palace take on Brighton. Oliver Glasner’s side haven’t won a game since mid-December, scoring only nine times in their last 12 games in all competitions. They’ll be hoping their January signings Brennan Johnson, Jorgen Strand Larsen, Yeremy Pino and Evann Guessand can fire them to victory.

Meanwhile, a win for Brighton would get Fabian Hurzeler back in the fans’ good books after a run that has seen them win once in their last 11 Premier League games. They’ve slipped to 13th in the table from fifth a couple of months ago.

There was only one game in the WSL yesterday. Manchester United got the better of Leicester in a 2-0 victory. Goals from Julia Zigiotti and Elisabeth Terland were too much for a Leicester side that find themselves in a relegation battle.

Frank Ilett is getting dangerously close to a haircut after Michael Carrick guided Manchester United to a fourth victory in a row with a 2-0 victory over Spurs. Only West Ham stand between Ilett and a set of clippers. Will day 493 mark the end of his hair growth journey and Manchester United’s search for five consecutive wins?

It was a busy day of Premier League action yesterday. League leaders Arsenal extended the gap at the top to nine points after a comfortable win over Sunderland. Cole Palmer marked his return to Chelsea’s starting line up with a first half hat-trick in their 3-1 win against a struggling Wolves side. And Brentford made history by beating Newcastle 3-2 in their first victory at St James’ Park since 1934.
