the four goals that we scored in extra time against St Mirren has been part of the Celtic thing but we've had to work for that we've really had to work for it this is the whole point and today I thought there was some fabulous stuff being played the crowd of course played a big part I thought they were really terrific carried us along at a time when Rangers were in the ascendancy but yeah

the criticism I'm not worried it'd be nice to start a season get your own thoughts together your own plans all that type of stuff and lay out plans for the whole season wasn't to be and we've been playing catch up right Jim what are you thinking then how confident are you you can get this over the line after today good afternoon gentlemen how are you good thank you how are you well

The Celtic bench explodes with joy.

You're such a meaty, with an unbelievable overhead kick.

Rio Hitati squeezed the ball past the Rangers goalkeeper.

Mikey Moore glanced home across and James Tavenier.

Yeah, the sun is shining here at Celtic Park.

They've had a pre-match DJ on.

It genuinely feels like a party atmosphere, but that will all disappear in 13 minutes' time when this game kicks off, and that excitement, I'm sure, will turn to nerves for the 60,000 home support and the 2,200 fans.

away support for Rangers and everyone watching and listening at home.

Let's get straight into the team news shall we because it always is so important on days like this.

One change for Celtic from their win against Hebs last time out.

Out drops Sebastian Tenetti and in comes Luke McCowan.

Valjami Sinisalo then continues in goal.

There's a back four of Alistair Johnson, Austin Trustee, Liam Scales and Kieran Tierney.

A midfield three of Callum McGregor, Arnott Engles and Benjamin Negrin.

It looked as if Luke McCowan will be playing out wide, which he did on a couple of occasions successfully in Martin O'Neill's first interim spell this campaign.

Yang, on the other side, dies in Maeda, plays through the middle.

The substitutes, Doohan, Iheanacho, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Tenetti, Sirachi, Hatati, Murray, Forrest and Ralston.

Four Rangers, three changes for them.
