Preview
Celtic captain Scott Brown requires a fitness test, but manager Neil Lennon expects the midfielder to face Hearts in their Scottish Cup semi-final.
Victor Wanyama is now free from suspension and Thomas Rogne is available again following injury, but James Forrest has a long-term problem.
Jamie Hamill misses out for Hearts, but winger David Templeton is available for the first time since February.
Andy Webster should be fit, but four other players are injury doubts.
Strikers Craig Beattie and Stephen Elliott and midfielders Mehdi Taouil and Adrian Mrowiec are all struggling to make the game against the newly crowned Scottish champions at Hampden.
Hearts have nine players walking a suspension tightrope, although manager Paulo Sergio has urged them to focus only on Sunday's game and not on the possibility of missing out on the final should the Edinburgh side get there.
Captain Marius Zaliukas, Rudi Skacel, Andrew Driver, Darren Barr, Danny Grainger, Scott Robinson, David Templeton, Suso and Jordan Morton are all in danger of being suspended for the final should they pick up a second yellow card of the competition.
Hearts go into the game on the back of two straight wins as they chase European qualification spots in the Scottish Premier League.
They have lost only one of their last seven games, with the 2-0 quarter-final replay win over St Mirren in Paisley being one of five victories after a 2-2 draw.
The Edinburgh side will take confidence from their 2-0 win over Celtic in October, but that came before Lennon's side went on a long unbeaten run that allowed them to overtake reigning champions Rangers and clinch the title last weekend.
It is the first Scottish Cup meeting between the sides since 10 April 2005, when Celtic won 2-1 to reach the final, where they defeated Dundee United, after recording their 17th win in 23 meetings between the clubs in the country's premier knock-out competition.
Celtic have bounced back with two victories following their surprise defeat by Kilmarnock in the Scottish Communities League Cup final and losing to Rangers in the Old Firm derby.
They arrive at Hampden on a high after securing the league title in style by hammering Kilmarnock 6-0 at Rugby Park.
The winners will face Hibernian, who defeated Aberdeen 2-1 on Saturday, in the final, which for Hearts means the prospect of a first Edinburgh derby in the Scottish Cup final since 1896.
Celtic manager Neil Lennon : "It's been a great week. The place is vibrant.
"The players are ecstatic and I don't think it will take too much to get them back up for the game on Sunday.
"It will be a difficult game - semi-finals always are - Hearts are formidable opponents and, having watched them in the last round beating St Mirren way, they've got good pace in the team.
"Skacel's a threat, Beattie's a threat, so they've got goalscorers in the team as well so we're going to have to play well."
