Glasgow Rangers have shown fluctuations this season but remain contenders for the title, currently second in the standings with 37 points from 11 wins, 4 draws, and 2 losses. Their form has been improving, with a five-match unbeaten run, including a 2-2 draw against Belgian side Club Brugge in a friendly, showcasing their competitive edge. In their last league match, they drew 1-1 with Aberdeen, demonstrating resilience. Rangers typically deploy a 4-2-3-1 formation under manager Michael Beale, continuing the traditional, robust style of British football, focusing on counter-attacks complemented by long balls and aerial duels. Defensively, the team retreats to their own half, forming a 5-4-1 setup, with the defensive midfielders intercepting in the middle, and the central defenders guarding against aerial threats and ground penetration. Celtic Park, a formidable home ground, is known as a Scottish Premiership fortress. The team's core is solid, with only a few rotational adjustments among the substitutes. The attack is led by Moussa Dembélé, supported by the midfield orchestration of Australian international Tom Rogic, creating an efficient attacking system. The midfield seamlessly transitions between attack and defence, thanks to Portuguese player Jota's wing play and Czech midfielder Tomáš Souček's interceptions. The defence is marshalled by captain Caldwell, with goalkeeper Joe Hart providing stability. The only concern is the potential fatigue from multiple competitions, but their deep squad should be able to cope. Match direction: Celtic FC 0.5
