John Souttar and Ridvan Yilmaz were both handed starts in a bid to get more game time into their legs after long Rangers injury absences.
Souttar was a late sub in the weekend's 3-1 win over Kilmarnock after being sidelines since the first week of the season with an ankle injury. The former Hearts star made the switch to Ibrox in the summer, but his injury troubles followed him along the M8 as life in Govan was put on hold with more surgery required. He's now working towards fighting for a first team starting spot and after his brief cameo against Killie, was given 45 minutes in the B team derby before being withdrawn at half-time.
Yilmaz was a summer signing from Besiktas but has also found regular fitness and games hard to come by at Rangers. He hasn't featured since a win over Aberdeen back in October with a hamstring issue. But he too was handed 45 minutes along with Souttar against Celtic.
