Cup final fever has swept Aberdeen as the city prepares to cheer the Dons on in Saturday's Hampden showpiece.

Statues and shop windows have been decorated in Aberdeen shirts and scarves as Derek McInnes' men prepare to face Celtic.

Figures such as Queen Victoria and the city's war memorial lion are covered in red while the Tivoli Theatre has flown a flag above the building.

More than 20,000 fans are expected to travel to Glasgow for the big match, with the Granite City turning red and white for the day.

At the game, a card display has been organised for the Aberdeen end of the ground. Fans are asked to raise the card just before the team emerge at 2.55pm.

Aberdeen confirmed there they will not hold a victory parade or celebrations at Pittodrie if they win the cup.

The move comes in the wake of the Manchester terror attack.
