Old Firm Derby Preview: Celtic vs Rangers in the Scottish Premiership
The Old Firm derby is set to take place at Celtic Park, Glasgow, with kick-off scheduled for 12:30pm GMT. Currently, Celtic sit on 38 points and Rangers on 35 points after 19 games in the Scottish Premiership, while Hearts lead the table with 41 points.
The weather at Celtic Park is cold, at 1°C but feels like -3°C. Celtic are under new management with Wilfried Nancy recently appointed as manager. However, the team has faced challenges, suffering five defeats in his opening seven games. This contrasts with an upturn in form experienced under stand-in boss Martin O’Neill prior to Nancy’s appointment.
Rangers have also struggled this season, having begun with a poor run under their manager Russell Martin. Looking ahead, Celtic will host bottom-side Livingston in their next match.
