Celtic v Rangers predictions
Celtic head into Saturday's final Old Firm derby of the league campaign three points ahead of their local rivals with just three matches of the season remaining.
Brendan Rodgers' side are firmly in the driver's seat in the race to be crowned Scottish champions, and a win on Saturday would likely all but secure them a 12th league title in 13 years in spite of Rangers having led the league standings in the back end of March.
The home side head into the weekend having won each of their last four matches, with seven wins in their last eight and will be confident of securing a victory in front of their oldest enemy in front of their home fans in what is effectively a title shoot out.
Rangers head into the weekend knowing realistically anything but a win at Celtic Park would spell the end of their Premiership title hopes for yet another season, which would leave the club with just one league title in the last 13 years.
Philippe Clement's side were well in control of the title race as recently as March but a run of just one win in five league matches has seen them lose ground to their closest rivals.
Three points separates the two teams going into the weekend, while Rangers' goal difference is also inferior and would need to win by three goals to climb to the top of the table on Saturday.
It's more likely though that the Gers will play for the win this weekend by any means necessary and try to make up the gap in goal difference across the final two games of the season.
It will take a monumental effort for Rangers to pull of victory in Parkhead though, at a stadium where they are winless in their last six visits which includes defeats in four of their last five games.
📝 Celtic v Rangers betting tips
Old Firm derbies often bring goals aplenty, particularly when there is so much on the line, just like Saturday's encounter. Betfair are pricing Celtic to win and over 3.5 goals in the match at 2.58/1, which could well prove a profitable punt.
