Dundee will set out to attack Celtic in their Scottish Cup tie later today, manager Paul Hartley insists, stressing the pressure is all on the Bhoys.
Ronny Deila's men make the trip to Dundee to lock horns with the Dees hoping to continue their quest for a domestic treble, with a spot in the League Cup final having been booked last weekend with victory over Rangers.
Hartley's Dundee will not lie down though and the 38-year-old has vowed to try and attack the Scottish champions as much as possible.
He also claims all the pressure is squarely on Celtic's shoulders and not Dundee's.
"I don’t think the pressure is on us on Saturday, Celtic are the favourites, but I think in the games against them we’ve ran them close, we’ve given them two good games", Hartley said via his club's site.

"We’ll give ourselves a chance on Saturday, we’ll set a team out to be as attack minded as possible.
"If you are going to win the cup you have to win these games, there is never an easy game that comes along", the manager added.
Dundee have already hosted Celtic this season, in the Scottish Premiership, and held Deila's men to a 1-1 draw, while they are unbeaten in their last six games in all competitions.
However, the Dees have lost four of their last five meetings at home against the Bhoys.
