Given that we’ve beaten them 3-0 and 4-0 in the past 14 months, many Celtic fans will have hopes of another demolition of Rangers on Saturday.
Ange Postecoglou‘s Hoops have won two of their three meetings with the Ibrox side this season, drawing the other.
Victory on Sunday should virtually secure another Premiership title for Celtic, but many will fancy another big margin of victory.
Conversely, the Ibrox faithful will be fearing the worst given their side’s tendency to wilt in the hostile surroundings at Celtic Park.
Their former captain Richard Gough seems to be fearing the worst, in a pleasing set of quotes.
Speaking to the Daily Record, he said: “Look at what’s happened the last few times we’ve played there. There has been a 3-0 and a 4-0 in there. It’s got heavy.
“I still get up and watch it at something like half past four in the morning here but I’m sitting behind the couch. It’s a hard watch for me, especially when my record at Parkhead was a good one.
“I don’t like to say it but Celtic have a better team than us at the moment, I think the majority of the Rangers supporters would agree with that.
“They have better players, they run around more.”
Gough’s quotes are great, because he sums up how the majority of their fans will be feeling ahead of the game.
Rangers have folded hilariously in two of their last three visits to our ground, and while they did earn a draw this time last season, it’s going to be much harder for them with none of their supporters present.
Their mentality has proven to be weak over the years and this Celtic team may well sense blood if we get an early goal, like we did in the 3-0 and 4-0 wins.
Let’s get Celtic Park rocking and see if we can get that early goal.
