Football is a global phenomenon, its unique light enveloping the planet as disparate peoples come together, transfixed by the hypnotic beauty of the beautiful game. Aye right, and then there’s Rangers v Celtic.

Because for all the patter – touching stories from here and social commentary from there – some things cant be intellectualised and sentimentalised, not even by the Guardian, and when it comes down to it, the Old Firm rammy stands alone.

But even in that context, today’s match is special, a howling, screeching, whirling Glesga of a match. Celtic, going for a third straight title and a 12th out of 13, lead the table by a point and will consider themselves favourites. But Rangers have a game in hand, home advantage, and the confidence that they are well-placed in the closes race for years – one many thought would already be over.

Which is is to say the teams arrive at Ibrox Stadium under all sorts of pressure and managing all sorts of expectations, the madness of the world transmogrified via the medium of interpretive soccer. This is going to be intense.

important events
The main stand at Ibrox What a work of art!
Brendan thinks Old Firm matches are always going to be big. He’s looking forward to watching his team play, but there are still six games left after this one, and McGregor will play some role in the fight, but he just isn’t fit for the fight. added.
He thinks Kyogo hasn’t been given the space in some games, but he can play a little more against Rangers and is part of the frontline that should break through. His team has performed well in derbies this season. He wasn’t expected to win against Ibrox at the start of the season, but he did.
Someone who pointed out a minor typo You may be interested to know that there is a feature in cricket called “cut shot”. Yes, I really did it.
The one on the left is Maeda, what do you think? Keigo also aimed for the space behind Tavernier. Philippe Clement knows his captain has to defend, but he probably has plans to get him into games in the future. He’s having a tough afternoon for Scott Wright, who is placed in front of him.
What about 4 red cards? all that no one I want to see it, I say.
A classic Old Firm game?
On the other hand, the Celts Rangers hold the ball and make quick passes, dropping between the wide attackers trying to get into the box and the midfielders running through the false nine, forcing the Rangers center backs out of position. I’ll aim for it.
Where can I find the game? My guess is the Rangers want to keep things close. They will want the midfield three to sit in the space in front of the back four, which is where Kyogo likes to play. They will aim to double up when attacking on the right and cross into the box with the intention of causing confusion.
On Sky, Chris Sutton interviews Henrik Larsson. But for this topic, I recommend this.
As for Celtic, Brendan Rodgers returned to the bench after being suspended from the touchline for criticizing the referee (the same referee in charge of today’s game). I would have thought about extending that to the way he spoke to reporters. He named the squad unchanged enough for skipper Callum McGregor to be on the bench.

So what does that mean? Now, Rangers have made two changes, bringing on Dujon Sterling for Borna Barisic at left-back and Tom Lawrence for Todd Cantwell in midfield. To me they look like defensive changes, but we’ll see.
team!
Rangers (4-2-3-1): Butland. Tavernier, Goldson, Sarter, Sterling. Diomand, Lundstram. Wright, Lawrence, Silva. dessert. sub: McCrory, Cantwell, Matondo, Sima, Dowell, Balogun, Barisic, King, McCausland.

preamble
Football is a worldwide phenomenon, its unique light enveloping the earth as disparate people come together and are transfixed by the hypnotic beauty of the beautiful game. Oh yeah, Rangers vs Celtic.
Because for all the patterns of inspirational articles here and social commentary there, there are some that cannot be intellectualized or sentimentalized, even by the Guardian; Because it is isolated.
But even in that context, today’s match was special, a roaring, screeching, swirling Gressaga match. Celtic, who are aiming for their third straight victory and 12th place out of 13 games, are leading on point difference and are considered to be the favorites. But Rangers have a game in hand, home advantage and the confidence to be in a good position for a close game for years – a thought many will have already thought.
So the team arrived at Ibrox Stadium managing all kinds of pressures and all kinds of expectations, and the madness of the world transformed through the medium of interpretive football.this is how it will go intense.
Kick-off: 12pm (BST)
