Celtic vs Rangers on TV: Channel, kick-off time and live stream details

Celtic and Rangers will battle it out in the first Old Firm showdown of the season as both clubs aim to put down an early season marker and grab the derby bragging rights.

Ange Postecoglou and his Hoops go into this one with five wins from five and have been in free-scoring form. They netted NINE goals in their last league outing at Dundee United and followed that up with four goals in their Premier Sports Cup last 16 win over Ross County in Dingwall on Wednesday night.

For the Light Blues, they have won four and drawn one of their five games with the only dropped points to date coming at Easter Road in a 2-2 draw with Hibs. The capital club struck in added-time at the end of the match against the nine-men of Rangers. Like Celtic, they've started to find the back of the net and have also secured safe passage to the last eight of the cup.
