This match marks the final league encounter before the split, with Celtic having previously secured victory in their memorable 3-1 extra-time match at Hampden earlier this season. The first derby earlier this year ended in a goalless draw, which left many fans underwhelmed.

As the match approaches, Celtic is preparing for significant changes in management. Wilfried Nancy, currently of Columbus Crew, is expected to take over as Celtic’s new manager. Reports indicate that negotiations are progressing and could be finalized soon, with an anticipated start date in early March.

Before the derby, Nancy will have to focus on crucial matches, including a league game against Hearts and a League Cup final versus St Mirren. These challenges are critical as he gears up for his first visit to Ibrox during this historic season.
