Rangers and Celtic injury latest as one star faces derby race against time while duo have same problem

There’s a host of selection headaches for Rangers and Celtic leaders to consider ahead of the Premiership clash.

Rangers and Celtic go head to head in a possible clash for the ages this Sunday - but how are the squads shaping up?

Manager Philippe Clement has more injury issues to be dealing with than counterpart Brendan Rodgers. Danilo and Oscar Cortes are two definitely out of the match while he has some stars returning to fitness and unlikely to be able to do 90 minutes.

Celtic meanwhile have welcomed the return of a key star and another is poised to join him this Sunday. Both men will address the media before the weekend and provide full confirmation on who is in and out of their teams.
