Madden takes charge of the showpiece event for the first time having previously refereed the 2015 Scottish League Cup final between Celtic and Dundee United. He was fourth official at the last year’s Scottish Cup final when Hibs defeated Rangers with a late David Gray header to win the cup for the first time in 114 years.

He was also an additional assistant referee at the 2013 final between Hibernian and Celtic.
