The most recent Old Firm derby between Rangers and Celtic ended in a 3-3 draw, and Tom English is expecting even more drama when Philippe Clement’s team plays Dundee.
One of the most memorable Old Firm matches in a long time took place at Ibrox, where Rangers trailed Celtic by one point in the Scottish Premiership title contest following the draw.
With a victory at Dundee on Wednesday, April 10, the Bears may take the lead in the Scottish Premiership.
English observed, “Both sides deserve a lot of praise and both emerge with their title hopes intact,” in his post-match analysis shared with the BBC. Cheers to this drama’s upcoming chapter on Wednesday night.
Rangers prepared to take the lead and ascend to the top of Dundee
On that particular Wednesday night, Clement’s team will go to Dundee in the north, where three points can move them past Celtic and into the top spot in the standings.
The Gers have the opportunity to build on their late-game comeback against their fiercest rivals at Ibrox, where they overcame a dismal first forty-five minutes to twice equalize. This gives them the advantage in this season’s thrilling title competition.
English has also supported Rangers to defeat Dundee, praising Clement for his team’s steely performance to steal a point, in keeping with the character they displayed in the second half.
There will still be unanswered concerns given how poorly they performed in the first half, but good luck stopping Rangers from winning the Premiership on Wednesday night if they show up at Dens Park with the same resolve they displayed in the second half.
If the game is played, it would be wonderful if the journey to Dundee resulted in a simple three points, given the drama surrounding VAR and the controversies on the field at Ibrox.
