John Beaton will be the man in the middle for the New Year Old Firm derby.
Rangers welcome Celtic to Ibrox in the second meeting of the rivals this season with Ange Postecoglou's side running out big 4-0 winners earlier this campaign. It's all change in the Light Blues camp though with Giovanni van Bronckhorst sacked and Michael Beale back at the club for a second stint having previously worked as No2 to Steven Gerrard.
The new boss has already been involved in two five-goal thrillers with his debut in the dugout ending in a comeback 3-2 win over Hibs at Ibrox last week. Supersub Scott Arfield then secured a dramatic victory at Pittodrie against Aberdeen last night by the same scoreline with a double in the 94th and 97th minute of play. Celtic are in action tonight against Livingston at Parkhead before they take on St Johnstone and Hibs ahead of their trip to face Rangers.
The Ibrox men have a trip to Dingwall on Friday night to face Ross County then a clash with Motherwell in Govan before the derby day blockbuster.
Daniel McFarlane and Dougie Potter will run the lines with Don Robertson the fourth official.
Willie Collum is the man on VAR with David McGeachie alongside the experienced whistler.
