Celtic and Rangers meet again in the Scottish Premier League. The match will be played at Celtic Park. Celtic, who were thrashed 3-0 by Rangers last week, are now facing mounting challenges. Also, Celtic lost 3-1 to Ferencvaros in the Europa League.
The defeats have put more pressure on Martin O'Neill's side, but Celtic have the chance to hold on to an eight-point lead over Rangers. "We're ready for the game, really," O'Neill said. "It was a tough game and last night was tough, but we are ready. We are still leading the league. If we win this game, we will extend our lead.
"We cannot expect to be on three consecutive defeats, but we are still ahead. We need to think more, but the fans will be ready for this game. The players are capable of turning around."
The defeat at Ibrox raises questions about whether Celtic's new players have failed to understand how to perform in important games. "It may take some time to understand, but those who experienced it last Sunday will know the importance," O'Neill explained.
Rangers have momentum and their win in last week's derby has made it five wins in total and four clean sheets. Above, manager Derrick McGuinness said the absence of away fans was "overstated", but will have to watch how the narrative changes in the Glasgow match.
"We've worked hard to get where we are now, but there were a lot of difficulties in the previous period. Last week's game was important, but we need to work on it again.
"We can't just win one game, we have to get something. It takes a lot of work."
Team News
O'Neill confirmed that some players who left during the defeat at Ferencvaros will need to be assessed. Yang Hyun-jun, who is on international duty in South Korea, is also undecided as to whether the front-line changes to Casper Hoek and Camilo Duran. Alistair Johnston and Callum Osmond are out injured.
Rangers are likely to lose leading man Ryan Naderi, who was injured in the win over Celtic. The club have contacted the Scottish FA to ask why no further punishment was handed down. Also, an unnamed player, a doubt for the tourney, is back in training after suffering a left-sided Torumens injury.
