The Celtic striker is likely to garner extra attention from Rangers this afternoon.
Celtic striker Moussa Dembele has told the Daily Mail that he will not be changing anything for today’s clash with Rangers.
The Frenchman was the star of the show in the first Old Firm derby this season, scoring a superb hat-trick in his side’s 5-1 win over Mark Warburton’s team.
It means he is likely to be a marked man when the two sides meet in the Scottish League cup semi-final at Hampden this afternoon.
Indeed, it would be surprising if the Gers have not devised a plan to keep him quiet following that display at Celtic Park.
And when asked by the Daily Mail if he will be doing anything to counteract that, Dembele was unequivocal in his answer.
“Maybe Rangers will decide to try something different, that’s up to them,” he said. “We are just going to play our game and I will keep doing what I have done since I came here.
‘I hope it will be possible for me to produce another performance like that. I am ready to give 100 per cent and if it happens like it did last time then I will be very happy.”
It remains to be seen if Dembele can replicate that performance and help his side secure a place in the Scottish League Cup final.
He is unlikely to find things as easy as he did last time around, with Rangers sure to have learned their lessons from that chastening defeat.
In fact they will be keen to get revenge for that game and perhaps Dembele would be wise to change things up to ensure it is another win for him and his team.
