Celtic currently hold a two point lead at the top of the table, but have played two more games than Rangers thanks to freezing weather disrupting the schedule in Scotland.
Rangers will be hoping hard working midfielder Steven Naismith will be fit after pulling a hamstring in the 4-1 Boxing Day victory at Motherwell.
League leading goal scorer Kenny Miller will be fit and hoping to add to his 21 goal tally, but it remains to be seen who will partner him in the attack. Kyle Lafferty could return after recovering from a broken hand, while James Beattie remains an injury doubt.
Rangers assistant manager Ally McCoist told BBC Sport that the ‘Gers will be looking to emulate their 3-1 win at Celtic earlier in the season. “We played particularly well in the first game at Celtic Park. I wouldn’t say we won it comfortably but we won it well and we are looking to do the same again.,” said McCoist.
Will Celtic be able to avenge their October 2010 Old Firm defeat? Or will Walter Smith’s Rangers triumph on home soil against the Hoops again? See Rangers vs Celtic live online and find out.
