Celtic vs. Rangers predicted lineups
Postecoglou is still without Japan international Yosuke Ideguchi through injury and the Australian coach has kept changes to a minimum based on their winning streak in August.
Ten players have started their five games this season with Reo Hatate handed a starting spot after netting twice against Rangers last term.
Celtic lineup (4-3-3): Hart (GK) – Juranovic, Carter-Vickers, Starfelt, Taylor – McGregor, O’Riley, Hatate – Jota, Abada, Kyogo.
Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst has an unchanged injury picture ahead of the trip across Glasgow with Ianis Hagi and Filip Helander both sidelined.
Midfield duo Kemar Roofe and Glen Kamara are unlikely to be risked by the Dutchman with Ryan Jack set to return to bolster the visitors’ midfield.
Rangers predicted lineup (4-2-3-1): McLaughlin (GK) — Tavernier, Goldson, Sands, Barisic — Lundstrum, Jack — Lawrence, Tillman, Kent — Colak
