Handed a three-year deal when becoming manager of Rangers in June, Russell Martin is already feeling the pressure of being in charge of the Scottish giants. Three games into the Scottish Premiership season and the Gers have drawn all three, making it the worst start to a league campaign in 36 years. They even made hard work of League One Alloa Athletic in the League Cup and were thrashed in their Champions League qualifier against Club Brugge as they lost 9-1 on aggregate. The pressure is now mounting, with fans already voicing their concern about the former Southampton boss.
While Rangers have struggled, Celtic head to Ibrox having made the perfect start to the season, winning all three league games. Brendan Rodgers’ side may not have been at their best but they have looked solid in defence and have taken their chances, as was the case in the 3-0 win over Livingston last weekend. Despite the disappointment of missing out on a place in the Champions League after their loss to Kairat Almaty, they’ll still be confident of overcoming a struggling Rangers side.
