Rangers icon Brian Laudrup is convinced Rangers can edge a title war of attrition and leave champions Celtic reeling.
But that view isn't shared by former Parkhead star Kris Commons who believes it will be Ange Postecoglou's men who are once again toasting trophy success next May. The great rivals are primed to lock horns once more ahead of the new Scottish Premiership with both aiming to come out on top. Rangers thrilled en route to the Europa League Final but boss Gio Van Bronckhorst knows it's vital to come out on top domestically while retaining ambitions on the continent.
The Danish wing king told the Daily Mail : "I have to say Rangers. I think it's going to be so close, a brilliant clash with Celtic, but I do feel Gio van Bronckhorst is now shaping a team in his own style and we'll see that this season. They have some momentum after the positive way last season finished, lifting the Scottish Cup after coming so close in the Europa League. The dynamic in Old Firm games also altered and I think Rangers can edge it this time."
