Rangers host Celtic at Ibrox in the Old Firm derby this afternoon.
Rangers take on Celtic in the Old Firm derby today, and pundit Chris Sutton has taken to Twitter in order to react to the line-ups.
The Gers head into the game having drawn 1-1 at home with Hibernian in midweek, as Darren McGregor popped up to haunt his former club with a late equaliser.
Steven Gerrard has made a couple of big calls with his team; Andy Halliday is in at left back for the injured Borna Barisic, whilst Lassana Coulibaly is dropped from midfield in favour of Scott Arfield.
Ryan Kent also returns out wide after a recent injury, but Gerrard has resisted temptation to bring in Kyle Lafferty from the start.
Meanwhile, Celtic duo Kieran Tierney and Odsonne Edouard haven’t been passed fit to start, and can only sit on the bench, leaving Brendan Rodgers to name a shock team.
He has gone without a recognised left-sided defender, meaning Callum McGregor may play as a left wing back, with James Forrest over on the right.
Youngster Mikey Johnston starts in attack after some promising recent displays, with Scott Sinclair called upon to support him.
Now, pundit Chris Sutton has suggested that Kent’s return is huge for Rangers, and believes the decision to start Johnston in such a huge game is a big call from Rodgers.
Sutton added that Forrest and Alfredo Morelos are the key players, before ex-Rangers midfielder Joey Barton offered his support to the Gers ahead of today’s game.
