Ibrox side Glasgow Rangers will contest the Old Firm derby in the Scottish Premiership on Sunday.
Glasgow Rangers ex-striker Kenny Miller has given his honest opinion of Alfredo Morelos ahead of the Ibrox side’s Old Firm derby this weekend.
Steven Gerrard’s charges travel to Parkhead at the weekend to face Celtic, hoping to secure a second consecutive victory over their bitter rivals following their 1-0 triumph at Ibrox in December.
Rangers are currently 10 points behind Neil Lennon’s side with eight games remaining this season, so although it’s not insurmountable by any means, it is a big ask, hence the opportunity presented to them to reduce the gap to seven this weekend.
Morelos, a fan favourite at Ibrox thanks to his talent and passion, has netted 29 goals this season for the Gers in all competitions (Transfermarkt) and is looking to add to that by breaking his Old Firm duck this weekend.
The Colombia international, who made his first start for his country against South Korea this week, has impressed for his club over the last two seasons and will most likely be key to trying to make it two derby wins on the bounce.
Dundee striker Miller, meanwhile, played for both Rangers and Celtic, and was the last player in a light blue jersey to score in a winning game at the Hoops’ ground back in 2010.
Speaking to BBC Sport, the 39-year-old said: “Alfredo Morelos is having an outstanding season.
“He’s not managed to score against Celtic yet and I know that’s something that eats away at him, but it wouldn’t surprise me to see that change at the weekend. His rate of goalscoring has been outstanding and he produces them on his own.”
