I'll give it

LLIE Dixon had never heard of Celtic FC until February and she picked fan favourite chant Jota on the Wing to sing on the radio.

Today she'll be singing it in front of a 60,000 home crowd in Glasgow before Celtic play Rangers in an all-important derby at Celtic Park.

The Cambridge singer, 24, isn't a football fan but will be playing her biggest gig before the kick-off after becoming a viral sensation.

She said: I'm excited but it’s scary to be turning up in front of so many Celtic fans. I just want to do everyone justice.

“It's just going to be me and my guitar. Who needs a drum kit when you've got 60,000 backing singers?”

It's an incredible turn of events for the indie singer, who had never heard of Portuguese footballer Jota, 24, until she was asked to choose a song on Patrick Kielty’s BBC 5Live show.
