Celtic host Rangers in another Old Firm derby at the top of the Scottish Premiership this weekend.

Celtic host Rangers in another Old Firm derby at the top of the Scottish Premiership this weekend.

The Hoops lead the way at the top of the table by a huge 16 points ahead of the penultimate meeting of the Glasgow giants this season.

While the title is all but wrapped up, Rangers beat Celtic 3-0 back in January to inflict only a second derby day defeat on the Bhoys boss.

Certainly no stranger to these games, it will be the first time Ferguson has overseen one as a manager.

After two years away, away supporters will be allowed into Old Firm games again from this meeting onwards – albeit they have only been allocated “4% of saleable capacity.”

On Thursday, Rangers beat Fenerbahce on penalties to progress into the Europa League quarter-finals after a 2-0 loss at Ibrox, having won 3-1 in the first leg out in Turkey last week.

Celtic vs Rangers prediction

Thursday night would have taken a lot out of Rangers, who have been well below Celtic’s level this season on a consistent basis anyway.

With that in mind, the hosts look favourites.

Celtic to win, 2-1.
