Yes you can never predict a Celtic vs Rangers game as form goes for nothing in a local derby. Hopeful but not complacent for tomorrow. 🍀👍
You can predict any game you like and form is a decent guide.
Celtic should win with a bit to spare but first goal could be crucial. Having said that, we are vulnerable against Rangers' 'tactics'.
As long as the officials don't decide the outcome I'll accept whatever result we get.
It's pantomime dame Gollum with the whistle and he does love the limelight.
Not sure I agree with opening sentence this year, at our best we’ve put in some great performances in Europe, just that our players have the mentality of a housefly.
Under Ange would have been no question, Celtic have better players in key positions and they are fit going into tomorrow, but not sure when the best Celtic has been seen this season.
Happy to be underdogs, if we were top of the league, would’ve been an easy win for Celtic.
You forgot to mention that whilst Celtic have a full compliment of players available Rangers look like they will have 7 first team players missing again and a couple more who are only half fit.
Plus we have two players who appear to have already signed pre contracts with new teams and an absolute clown shoe of a Portugeezer who will 100% not be there next season.
I am really struggling to see how that could possibly add up to the miracle result Rangers need.

We didn't mention all the players rangers have missing because we knew you would.
Also because they wouldn't make much difference as they're not very good anyway.

Still there’s plenty of them are better than the ones that will need to play tomorrow.
And the ones that will play are largely the ones who have won more points in the league than Celtic since big Phil came in.
Just saying.
"If Celtic play at their very best and Rangers play at their very best, Celtic win."
not subscribing to that plenty old firms gone by where the team that "performed" better has lost the game.
I do think Rodgers confidence boosting words used in the build up can work two ways. It can give them the confidence and relax and play their game or it can ramp up the pressure on them to perform given how much they have been talked up prior.
Hamish getting his excuses in early again.
Thank God someone did an article on the match this weekend

meltdowns from both sides happen if I do them
A lot of pressure being lumped onto Celtic this week, every man and their dog thinks Celtic will win.
They should but this is football.
It won't be easy. I'd like to think our team can see the opportunity to give Celtic a bloody nose and are right up for it, give it everything, make it a dogfight and take our chances. We will get them, it's about being clinical in moments we've often lacked it in.
I do like that the pressure seems to mainly be on Celtic, I think it helps us.
I like we've had Rodgers saying we will have fun, McGregor out in the press beating his chest, Sutton saying Rangers can't tame Celtic.
There may have been but I haven't seen comment from Rangers. I hope that's us focused on the job at hand, utilising their arrogance to our advantage.
If we can do it, the scenes. Rodgers face, the smile wiped off the dishes of a pungent home crowd.

Celtic back at full strength. Best place they have been in all season.
Rangers still massively affected by injuries.
Rangers have taken one point off celtic all season with an inury time worldy. And we have been awful at parkhead in recent years.
I am a realist - Celtic are correctly massive favourites for this game and we need a minor miracle imo.
Fook I've just seen Ben Davies is starting.

He was hilarious at the weekend. Think he scored his first league goal for rangers and he was being mobbed by the rangers players - all he was worried about was fixing his hair.
I was brought up on Terry Butcher and his blood stained headband - now we have centre backs whose main concern is preening themselves rather than celebrate a goal.
Absolute Blouse.
Overconfident? Not at all
Confident with recent results and expected outcome? Absolutely.
And yes you can predict the outcome. Predicting a Celtic win in any domestic game at home is pretty easy as we’ve lost only one game at home in the league
Old firm games are always 50/50 and can change on one decision.
Will be watching this one from behind the couch.

Regardless of the result tomorrow, this comment is everything that's wrong with Rangers and their fans and explains why you are only occasionally successful. It's like listening to Derek Johnstone on Superscoreboard 30 years ago.
That's not football any more if it ever was.
We don't need a miracle, we need to show a backbone and motivation. The motivation should be there and they've only added flames to that spark over the past week.
They are far from imperious and definitely beatable with a good showing. We got back into this position because they showed their soft underbelly, ultimately it's time for us to take advantage of it or concede the title goes to Mick Beale and Celtic.
Step up to the challenge, get a goal or two ahead and enjoy the panic.
