Celtic v Rangers XI's confirmed as star looks to cap off remarkable season with major step to Hoops title glory

Lanarkshire's Anthony Ralston has been picked to start for Celtic in today's crucial Premiership match with Rangers.

The Bellshill born-right back - who attended Airdrie's All Saints primary school - looked to be on his way out of Parkhead this time last year.

But now he's an integral part of manager Ange Postecoglou's plans after a fantastic renaissance in a campaign which could culminate in title glory.

Victory today would put Celtic nine points clear of Rangers with three games to go, whereas a Light Blues win blows the title race open again.

Wishaw David Turnbull is on the bench for the home side, as is Coatbridge's Stephen Welsh.

Uddingston's Alex Lowry has established himself as one of the current champions' brightest talents and he is given a bench slot by Ibrox boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst.
