Celtic defender Greg Taylor says he's ready to face Rangers despite being forced off against Hibs as a precautionary measure. But there could still be a derby selection plot twist in the works - with Alexandro Bernabei blowing Ange Postecoglou away with his cameo off the bench.
Taylor has been one of Celtic's top performers this season, starting all but three games in the league and playing more minutes so far than any other outfield player aside from Cameron Carter-Vickers and Matt O'Riley. He even filled in as a deputy right-back in the late stages against St Johnstone, with Bernabei substituted on after Anthony Ralston went off injured and Josip Juranovic still resting after World Cup duty.
He went off for Bernabei in the late stages against Hibs and was given a rare rest for the final 20 minutes but Postecoglou said after the game he doesn't expect it to be serious. And he's now declared on Instagram that he is "ready" for Monday's huge game that could see Celtic go 12 points clear at Ibrox and all-but end Rangers' title hopes.
