The third meeting between Celtic and Rangers this season will take place at Parkhead in March and could see Steven Gerrard’s men clinch the title at the home of their Glasgow rivals.

The runaway leaders are currently 23 points clear of Neil Lennon’s side and are firmly on course to claim the Scottish Premiership crown for the first time in a decade, in doing so ending Celtic's bid for a historic 10-in-a-row.

The game will be broadcast by Sky Sports and has been moved back to Sunday, March 21 with a 12pm kick-off.

Rangers have won both previous meetings between the sides this season, with a Connor Goldson double earning a 2-0 victory at Celtic Park in October.

In the return fixture at Ibrox in January, a Callum McGregor own goal settled the contest in the home side’s favour.
