Clancy has taken charge of one game for each side so far this campaign, overseeing Hibs' 5-0 Betfred Cup win against Ayr United and a 4-1 victory for the champions against Hearts on the opening day.

He has dished out a total of 37 yellow cards and one red card in 10 domestic games this season.

Steven McLean will then referee the second semi-final, with Graeme Stewart, Stuart Stevenson and fourth official Alan Muir providing assistance.
