Celtic face Rangers in a huge Scottish Premiership clash on Sunday afternoon.

The Hoops are currently second in the table with 73 points from 35 games, while Rangers sit just behind in third on 69 points, having played the same number of matches.

Celtic come into this derby in strong form, winning their last four league games in a row. Their latest result was a hard-fought 2-1 win away at Hibernian on May 3, following earlier victories against Falkirk (3-1) and St Mirren (1-0) at home.

Since Martin O’Neill took interim charge, Celtic have climbed back into second place and are now just four points behind leaders Hearts as they push for the title.

Celtic team news

There is some positive news for Celtic, with Daizen Maeda fit again after recovering from a foot injury. Alistair Johnston is also expected to return at right-back.

However, injuries remain a major concern. Goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is still out with a shoulder problem, meaning Viljami Sinisalo will continue in goal.

Defender Cameron Carter-Vickers is also unavailable due to an Achilles injury, while Jota is still out long term.

In addition, Tomas Cvancara, Julian Araujo, and Colby Donovan are all ruled out for the rest of the season.

Adam Montgomery (calf) and Callum Osmand (hamstring) are also sidelined, although Osmand is close to returning.
