Celtic vs Rangers: Scottish Premiership – BBC Sport

Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers: “As professional players and coaches, we prepare for the game and especially these games in particular.

“You know that there’s a different psyche in them. We’re coming into it in a really good place but we can never just assume that you don’t have to do the work.

“You have to do all the dirty side of the game, you have to be together, you’ve got to be unified and then bring your football and see how difficult you can make it for the opponent.”

Rangers manager Philippe Clement: “For the fans, we know it’s the game of the season. For us also, it’s your biggest rival.

“It’s three important points in the league, but you have 34 games also after.

“I think there’s been a more negative perception around the club but people forget sometimes to see what’s going well. It’s not all bad.

“We are a young exciting team who want to challenge that now. But I believe we also have the quality to challenge that and to go full out for the three points.”
