Celtic travel across Glasgow to Ibrox on Sunday afternoon to face Rangers.
Brendan Rodgers has a number of decisions to make in defence when he goes to pick his Celtic starting eleven to face Old Firm rivals Rangers on Sunday afternoon.
The Hoops travel to Ibrox as Rodgers looks to finally earn his first win as Celtic boss against current Rangers manager Graeme Murty, with the latter masterminding two draws between the Old Firm enemies.
It remains to be seen who Rodgers will play at right-back with Mikael Lustig sidelined, but it is at centre-back where Rodgers will face his biggest headache as Dedryck Boyata remains in the treatment room.
New signing Marvin Compper made his debut for the club last time out, bit with just one game under his belt in Scottish football, it is unlikely that Rodgers will entrust him with the berth of an Old Firm derby.
Instead, the former Liverpool manager should hand January signing Jack Hendry a chance to start and shine in defence after Hendry impressed against the Gers last time out for Dundee.
The 22-year-old was part of the Dundee side that earned a surprise 2-1 win over the Light Blues at Dens Park back in November, as the former Wigan defender kept Alfredo Morelos quiet.
Rodgers should take note of that performance and call on the 6ft 3in defender to do the same when the Bhoys travel to Ibrox this weekend. Starting him alongside Jozo Simunovic will give the Hoops the best chance of winning.
Three points for the Hoops will finally put to bed talk of a Scottish Premiership title race, with Celtic currelt six points clear and boasting a game in hand.
