With Celtic coming off back-to-back shellackings – one of those at the hands of Rangers a week ago – Derek McInnes' men have a golden opportunity to gain ground on the Scottish Premiership leaders. The Bhoys do, however, have one big advantage: all 60,411 seats at Parkhead will be filled by Celtic fans.

It's a role-reversal from last Sunday, when Rangers mauled their arch-rivals by three goals to nil to the delight of a 50,000-strong home crowd. Away fans are unable to attend any of this season's Old Firm Derbies, as punishment for the mass pitch invasion that followed their Scottish Cup quarter-final tie in March.

McInnes' awful start means Celtic are already five clear at the top with a maximum haul of 18 points, but the suspicion has been that results have masked issues... until now. A pair of Dan Neil crackers either side of Kevin Kelsy's first in a Rangers shirt condemned Martin O'Neill's men to a shockingly meek defeat in the League Cup a week ago, and things got worse with a 3-1 home hammering by Hungarian side Ferencvarosi on Thursday.

Approaching his 30th Old Firm Derby, it's possible that O'Neill has never felt quite so ill-prepared. It isn't just that the tinkering with Sam Johnstone and Viljami Sinisalo in goal, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Auston Trusty and Liam Scales at the heart of the backline, and Kasper Hogh and Camilo Duran up-front suggest that O'Neill doesn't know his best XI, it's that none of the experiments have worked out as of yet.

Start badly – or select Sebastian Tounekti ahead of World Cup breakout star Haissem Hassan again – and the full voice of Celtic Park might turn into a blessing in disguise for the Gers.
