Glasgow Rangers are in contention this year
Michael Beal is the manager of Glasgow Rangers for the 2023/24 Scottish Premier League season. Three years ago he was Steven Gerard's assistant during Glasgow's championship season. It was the last time Gers had taken a trophy from Celtic in 10 years. The Celts brought him back the following season and defended him in the previous campaign.

But the Rangers have big ambitions this season. And it's not just that they have a good coach they know and love; It's also because this team's roster looks very strong in 2023. The Gers landed some really good signings over the summer, starting with former Crystal Palace goalkeeper Jack Butland. They also signed midfielder José Cifuentes of the MLS Cup-winning team Los Angeles.

However, most of all they strengthened the attacking part, which they had to do after the termination of the contract with Alfredo Morales, who was their talisman last season. They have signed Danilo from Feyenoord, which is their eighth most valued transfer of the 21st century. They also brought Cyriel Dessers from Cremonese and Sam Lammers from Sampdoria.

Celtic to deliver great football in 2023
Like their main rivals, the Hoops also signed a lot of contracts during the summer transfer period, although, to be honest, they are not as good as those signed by the Rangers.

They also sold a couple of players this summer, most notably Jot, who moved for over $30 million to Al Ittihad of the Saudi Pro League. The Portuguese winger has been a key player for Celtic in the past two seasons, so there were concerns about how they would manage without him. But so far so good. At least in the domestic league.

We've gone through matchday 3 of the 2023/24 Scottish Championship and Celtic are leading the table with a 2-1-0 record and a 7-3 lead. What they should be worried about is that the draw in question came in the previous Premier League matchday, when they played 0-0 at home to St Johnstone. And a few days before we saw them lose 1-0 to Kilmarnock away in the Scottish League Cup.

Rangers vs Celtic Prediction
It looks like Gers will win this game. They usually do well in the "Old Firm" duels held on their territory, and in 2023 it looks like they'll be able to do well wherever they play. However, we think they will win on Sunday at Ibrox.

Selection: Glasgow Rangers win
