What channel is Rangers v Celtic on? Premiership match info, TV details, kick-off time, team news, referee

Celtic face Rangers for the sixth time this season when the Scottish champions travel to Ibrox in the Scottish Premiership.

The encounter is a dead rubber, if there can be one in this fixture. Although Rangers will be looking to avoid going the season without a win against their arch rivals. Meanwhile, Celtic will have the 107 point mark in their side having so far dropped points in just three league games all season.

Celtic wrapped up the title last week at Tynecastle Park with a 2-0 win over Hearts, avoiding the possibility of winning it without any of their fans in attendance. These final few games gives Michael Beale space to look at players with next season in mind.
