The Hoops have made four changes from midweek, with Kieran Tierney, Cameron Carter-Vickers, Benjamin Nygren and Camilo Durán all starting today. Haissem Hassan, my World Cup hero, must settle for a spot on the bench.There won’t be any Celtic support at Ibrox today – the SPFL announced this month that away fans will not attend Old Firm derbies in its competitions this season. There was fan disorder when the two sides met in March in the Scottish Cup.The teamsRangers: Pandur, Sterling, Fernandez, Makhanya, Penrice, Neil, Raskin, Min-su, Gassama, Kelsy, NaderiSubs: Kelly, McCrorie, Godfrey, Dragojevic, Devlin, Chukwuani, Curtis, Bouanani, MiovskiCeltic: Johnstone, Donovan, Carter-Vickers, Scales, Tierney, McGregor, Baur, Nygren, Durán, Tounekti, HøghSubs: Sinisalo, Lotomba, Trusty, Sørensen, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Hassan, Mheuka, Murray, ForrestPreambleHello, hello, hello and welcome to the first Old Firm derby of the season. Forget the league, where Celtic have a 100% record, and forget Europe, where there’s been serious misery for both sides. We go to the League Cup, won by St Mirren last time round, Wilfried Nancy’s side beaten in the final. He was gone not long after, prompting the return of Martin O’Neill.This’ll be the first time Derek McInnes comes up against Celtic as Rangers’ manager, with his side having won four on the bounce after a difficult start. It’ll also be McInnes’ first meeting with Celtic since that day in May, when his Hearts side couldn’t hold on to claim the title. We won’t have that level of drama today … but it should still be fun. Kick-off’s at 12pm BST.
