Celtic vs. Rangers lineups, team news

Rodgers has not confirmed any fresh injury issues ahead of this game, and he could recall Adam Idah to the starting line up, with the Norwich City loanee scoring against Rangers in April.

Celtic predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Hart (GK) — Johnston, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Taylor — O'Riley, McGregor, Hatate — Idah, Furuhashi, Maeda.

Celtic subs: TBC

Rangers are missing some key names for this game, with defender Connor Goldson ruled out for the season, but Rabbi Matondo should be fit in time to start.

Rangers predicted XI (4-3-3, right to left): Butland (GK) — Tavernier, Balogun, Souttar, Barisic — Diomande, Lundstrum, Cantwell — Sterling, Dessers, Silva.

Rangers subs: TBC

Celtic vs. Rangers prediction

Anything other than defeat will effectively confirm Celtic as Scottish champions this season with the two sides meeting again in the Scottish Cup final on May 25.

Rangers have lost on their last three visits to Celtic Park but a draw this weekend will at least stretch the title race out for another week.

Prediction: Celtic 1-1 Rangers
