Rangers will be looking to maintain their good run of form this afternoon when they take on Celtic at Ibrox in the Old Firm derby.

The Gers will head into the Scottish Premiership game on the back of a 3-1 victory over Partick Thistle away from home in the quarter-finals of the Scottish League Cup.

Pedro Caixinha’s side are third in the league table at the moment with 11 points from six matches, five points behind leaders and Old Firm rivals Celtic.

Brendan Rodgers’s side are in great form at the moment, and the players will be confident of picking up all three points from the encounter.

Celtic are unbeaten in the league since May 2016, while Rangers have picked up just a point from a possible 12 from their last four games against the Hoops, according to BBC Sport.
