Rangers and Celtic will look to go top of the Scottish Premiership table when the arch-rivals partake in this season's first Old Firm matchup on Sunday.
The Gers were ousted 5-1 by PSV in the Champions League match on Wednesday, while their last result in the league was a 2-0 victory over Ross County.
On the other hand, Celtic are on a two-game winless run in all competitions as they suffered a second-round exit in the Scottish League Cup with a 1-0 loss to Kilmarnock before recording a goalless league draw against St. Johnstone.
