With the highly anticipated Glasgow Derby between Celtic and Rangers on the horizon, Brendan Rodgers appears to have the upper hand as his team prepares to face their fierce rivals at home.

The absence of away fans at the upcoming match promises an intense and charged atmosphere as Philippe Clement’s Rangers side visit Celtic Park for the final SPFL derby of the season.

However, former Rangers striker Kris Boyd seems more concerned about the quality and depth of talent available to Brendan Rodgers rather than the outcome of the match itself.

Boyd, now a pundit for Sky Sports, expresses unease about how Celtic’s key players have been stepping up in recent weeks, contrasting this with a perceived lack of similar response from Rangers’ main figures.

In a recent segment on Sky Sports, Boyd highlighted the resurgence of Celtic’s prominent players, pointing to their significant contributions in crucial moments. He praised the likes of Callum McGregor, Matt O’Riley, and Kyogo Furuhashi for their performances and emphasized the importance of key players delivering when it matters most.

Moreover, Boyd acknowledged the positive impact of other players such as Liam Scales and Cameron Carter-Vickers, whose presence has brought stability and assurance to Celtic’s defense. With Joe Hart’s remarkable saves adding to the team’s solidity, Celtic seems to be in excellent form as they approach the final stretch of the season.

Boyd’s apprehension is understandable, as Celtic’s resurgence aligns perfectly with the crucial phase of the season, showcasing a team that is hitting top form at the right time.
