Rangers v Celtic confirmed XI: Philippe Clement makes Borna Barisic call
Philippe Clement has named his Rangers XI for the Old Firm derby clash against Celtic at Ibrox on Sunday, 7 April

Ridvan Yilmaz, who was a doubt for this game, is absent from the squad and has not recovered from his injury.
Rangers must win this derby v Celtic
Gers find themselves in an ideal situation in the league and a victory for them gives them a massive chance to win the title.
If they win against Dundee as well, their lead will go up to five points and that’s a healthy position to be in.
Gers currently hold the upper hand over Celtic, evident in their remarkable turnaround under manager Clement.
Despite trailing Celtic by seven points when Clement took charge, the Ibrox outfit have closed the gap to just one point, with a game in hand.
Their resurgence has shifted the momentum in the title race, unsettling Celtic’s dominance and changing the mood among the Bears fans.
With a home advantage at Ibrox and the opportunity to take points off Celtic, they have the chance to compound Brendan Rodgers’ frustrations and add to his recent challenges, potentially exacerbating his wrath amidst a closely contested title race.
