Rangers face Celtic in the 2026/27 Scottish League Cup quarter-final as Derek McInnes takes charge of his first Old Firm match and seeks an early advantage at Ibrox.
The fixture will have an unusual atmosphere because no away supporters are permitted at Old Firm matches this season. Rangers supporters expressed frustration during the week before Bojan Miovski secured a stoppage-time winner against St Mirren, extending the club’s run of four consecutive league victories. Those results cannot quickly erase the disappointment of Rangers’ European qualifying exits, but an early start could help win over the home crowd as they seek revenge for two cup defeats to Celtic last season.
Celtic will travel across Glasgow without travelling support, but they arrive in confident form. The Bhoys have won all six league matches this season, scoring 14 goals and conceding only three. New signing Kasper Høgh has scored in just one of those victories, although he managed a hat-trick in that match, while Martin O’Neill’s side have otherwise looked incisive going forward. Fellow recruit Camilo Duran has also been impressive, registering six goals in nine appearances. Celtic’s 5-1 defeat by LASK in the Champions League remains a setback, however.
