Celtic vs Rangers team news
Celtic are expecting Daizen Maeda to be fit after he suffered a foot issue having scored the opener against Hibs, while Iheanacho will be pushing to start after his crucial winner in Edinburgh that took his recent tally to four goals in five games.
However, the game will come too soon for Cameron Carter-Vickers as he works his way back from a serious Achilles injury, while loanees Tomas Cvancara and Julian Araujo remain sidelined along with Jota, Kasper Schmeichel, Callum Osmand, Colby Donovan and Adam Montgomery.

Celtic vs Rangers prediction
It feels nigh-on impossible to predict much correctly during one of the most captivating title races that has played out anywhere across European football in recent seasons.
The constant drama and non-stop twists and turns have been nothing short of extraordinary and it would not be at all surprising to see it go right down to the wire, with Celtic hosting Hearts on the final day.
Depending on Hearts’ result at Fir Park on Saturday night, victory may well be essential for Celtic to keep their challenge alive, especially with Hearts hosting Falkirk next and Celtic having to go to Motherwell themselves.
Rangers will be so disappointed to have seen their own title tilt fall away with those back-to-back losses to Motherwell and Hearts, but they would still relish dealing a hammer blow to Celtic’s hopes and could still have a huge say in the trophy’s destination.
