Predictions
Rangers come into this one having lost their last two games, so they’re not in great shape right now. Celtic have also been up and down, with a couple of wins but also some heavy defeats. When these two meet, it usually gets lively — recent meetings have often produced plenty of goals, and a few of them ended in high-scoring draws.
Looking at how both teams are playing, this one looks very close. Rangers are at home, which helps them, but Celtic have been the slightly stronger side overall. Given how tight these matches usually are, a draw seems the most likely outcome.
