Rangers vs Celtic live stream — how to watch the Old Firm clash live

It’s derby day in Glasgow once again, as the Old Firm clash in the Rangers vs Celtic live stream.

The match will be vital in deciding where the Scottish Premier League title goes, with Celtic going into the game just three points ahead of Rangers, and with a significantly better goal difference. However, the defending champions will have no intention of giving up their title without a fight in front of what will be a raucous Ibrox crowd.

The Hoops arrive having beaten their neighbours 3-0 in the last Old Firm match back in February thanks to two goals from Reo Hatate and another from Liel Abada in the first half. However, they did lose 1-0 on their last visit to Ibrox. 

That was Rangers boss Giovanni van Bronckhorst's first Old Firm game as a manager and he will be keen to correct things in front of his own fans. It will be a tough challenge, though, as Celtic have the best defensive record in the Scottish Premiership, having only conceded 18 goals all season. 

Both teams go into the Rangers vs Celtic live stream unbeaten in their last six league matches. The blue-half of Glasgow have, though, dropped points in two games, drawing against Motherwell and Dundee United. The Hoops smashed Ross County 4-0 prior to the international break, while the Gers claimed a 1-2 victory away at Dundee.

Rangers' forward Alfredo Morelos returned from international duty with Colombia early, with a thigh issue cited as the problem, and will not play today. However, former Arsenal and Juventus player Aaron Ramsey performed well for Wales as they took a step closer to qualifying for the Qatar World Cup later this year, and he could prove a key threat as he makes his first Old Firm appearance.

For Celtic, Japanese forward Daizen Maeda had to withdraw from games against Australia and Vitenman but is fit enough to start here.

Here's how they line up:

Rangers: McGregor, Tavernier, Goldson, Balogun, Bassey, Jack, Lundstram, Ramsey, Aribo, Kent, Roofe.

Celtic: Hart, Juranovic, Carter-Vickers, Starfelt, Taylor, McGregor, Hatate, Rogic, Jota, Maeda, Giakoumakis.

Aussies also get a couple of options for where to watch the Rangers vs Celtic live stream in the form of beIN Sports 1 Australia, beIN Sports Connect Australia, Foxtel Now, or Kayo Sports. 

Kayo Sports would be our pick of these if you've cut the cord, as it can be accessed via a dedicated mobile or tablet app, and also on Chromecast and Apple TV — plus it costs a very reasonable $25 AUD per month for the basic package.
