Expect a thrilling atmosphere at Celtic Park when Celtic and Rangers renew their Old Firm rivalry, with the Hoops hungry for revenge after suffering a 3-0 defeat to the Gers in the League Cup at the weekend. Celtic have been excellent at home, winning all four of their last four matches while scoring 2.25 goals per game and conceding just 0.25. Winger Yang Hyun-Jun remains doubtful, while Haissem Hassan is widely expected to return to the starting XI.
Rangers, on the other hand, are brimming with confidence ahead of yet another Old Firm derby following their convincing cup victory. The Gers have won 70% of their last 10 matches and conceded just 0.60 goals per game during that spell. Kevin Kelsy will continue leading the line in Lawrence Shankland’s absence, while Ryan Naderi is a major doubt after picking up a knock at the weekend.
Celtic have won all four of their last home matches and 25 of the previous 50 H2H meetings. Therefore, our main prediction leans toward Home Win, alongside Celtic Over 1.5 goals and Over 2.5 total (56% of the previous 50 Old Firm clashes produced at least three goals, while Celtic matches average 3.30 goals).
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Sunday 20 September 2026 at 12:00.
