GORDON STRACHAN has been speaking to the Football Pass ahead of the Glasgow Derby on Saturday and predicts where the game will be won or lost.
The former Celtic and Scotland boss believes it’s not in Celtic’s style of play to set up for a draw and they’ll be going all out for the win at Ibrox.
Strachan things the midfield battle will be the key to the game for both sides. Whoever can assert their dominance in the middle of the park will have the platform to create and go on to win.

Celtic need the win, there’s no two ways about it. The three points a must but the psychological edge they would get from a victory would be worth its weight in gold.
Rangers defence has been resolute and the clean sheets they’re racking up means it’s not going to be an easy task for Neil Lennon’s men.
We’ll find out who has the bottle on Saturday.
