Match Facts

  • Rangers are unbeaten in three league meetings with Celtic, winning two of them (D1), more than their previous 12 beforehand (W1 D3 L8).

  • Celtic have only won two of their last 11 away games against Rangers across all competitions (D3 L6), winning 2-1 in April 2022 and 1-0 in September 2023.

  • Celtic have won the first league Old Firm derby of a season in seven of the last nine campaigns, the only exceptions coming in 2020-21 (0-2 defeat) and 2021-22 (0-1 defeat).

  • Rangers have drawn all three of their league games so far this season; on only three occasions have they ever failed to win each of their opening four matches of a league campaign, doing so in 1964-65, 1978-79, and 1983-84. On all three instances, this included a defeat to Celtic.

  • Having won all three of their league games so far this season by an aggregate score of 6-0, Celtic could win each of their opening four matches of a league campaign without conceding for the fourth time, after 1906-07, 2010-11, and 2024-25.

  • Rangers have drawn seven of their last nine league games (W2), including each of their last four in a row. Only in September 1976, May 1984, and March 2015 have the Gers ever drawn five successive league fixtures, while they could go five top-flight matches in a row without a win for the first time since December 2005.

  • Of Rangers managers to face Celtic in the league, only two of the last 12 have won their first league Old Firm derby in charge of the club (D4 L6), Ally McCoist winning 4-2 in September 2011 and Barry Ferguson winning 3-2 in March last season.

  • Benjamin Nygren has the most goal involvements of any player in the Scottish Premiership this season so far (4), scoring (3) or assisting (1) 67% of Celtic’s league goals in 2025-26. Nygren also leads all players in the competition for chances created (12) and expected assists (1.64), and is second for both shots (10) and non-penalty expected goals (1.58).
