The Ibrox side have a miserable record against their rivals and the odds are heavily stacked against the Belgian ending that.
Philippe Clement said he wished Rangers were heading to Parkhead today such is his derby desperation - but the fans are looking it more with dread after a woeful run against their rivals.
Realistically, it all hinges on Saturday’s mammoth Old Firm derby clash as the Belgian looks to get his first win over Celtic at the third attempt and for Rangers themselves a first meaningful derby win in over TWO YEARS. It really is a miserable run with one dead rubber victory in their last TEN meetings and the champions, chasing a third consecutive title, are heavy favourites to continue their derby dominance.
Strike first Rangers have scored first in just one of their last ELEVEN games against Celtic which came in that 3-0 dead rubber win at the end of last season under Michael Beale. But even in their last meaningful victory against the Hoops - the 2-1 Scottish Cup semi final extra time victory under Giovanni van Bronckhorst - they were forced to come from behind.
The gap has closed between the rivals since the Irishman’s first spell, but the derby dominance is back after Steven Gerrard had shifted the balance back to the south side of the River Clyde with a SEVEN game unbeaten run under the Liverpool and England legend. It’s going to be a huge test of mentality.
