Kris Commons hits Rangers fans with a loaded question as he predicts Celtic cruise at Ibrox

Convinced Kris Commons believes there's a compelling case not one Rangers player would get into the current Celtic team.

The Ibrox side are 18 months removed from the quickest title win in Scottish football history but know defeat on Monday will have their rivals on the brink of a second consecutive Premiership triumph. Michael Beale will take on Ange Postecoglou in his first derby in the big seat. The 42-year-old has experience of the fixture when he served as Steven Gerrard's lieutenant and left QPR to return to his former club last month.

But Commons senses a different Cetic team and a brutal reality may unfold in front of Beale's eyes as he faces up to Postecoglou and a side which has only lost Premiership fixture in the past 15 months. Speaking in his Daily Mail column, he said: "I know Rangers have had clean sheets in their last two games. But, with all due respect, those came against Ross County and Motherwell. Celtic are playing football on a different planet to those sort of teams and will ask questions of Rangers which I don't believe Beale's side are capable of answering.
