Partick Thistle 0 Celtic 3 - 12th March 1988, Scottish Cup QF

Celtic's reward for their 4th round win over Hibs was this trip to sunny Firhill to face First division relegation candidates Partick Thistle. Thisle, however, gave Celtic a sterner test than most expected. In the end, Celtic ran out 3-0 winner through goals from Andy Walker, Tommy Burns and Billy Stark, with all three goals being created by Frank McAvennie. Burns goal, in particular, was a belter!

The semi final draw saw Celtic paired against Hearts.
