The league champions make the trip to Parkhead looking to take another step towards an unbeaten league campaign. In addition, they will be looking to pile more pressure on their rivals, while winning three consecutive games at Celtic Park for the first time in 29 years and winning the first league meetings since the 1996/97 season.
Rangers come into the match off the back of an exit from the Europa League. The team went down 2-0 to Slavia Prague at Ibrox, and 3-1 on aggregate, in the last-16 of the tournament.
Focus for the club now switches to an unbeaten league season and Scottish Cup success.
For the clash with Celtic on Sunday, which is live on Sky Sports, Gerrard will have a few selection headaches.
We predict the Rangers starting XI to face Celtic:

6. CM - Steven Davis
Such a vital presence at the base of the midfield. His composure, experience and vision is so important in derby matches. Photo: Rob Casey - SNS Group
7. CM - Glen Kamara
One of Rangers’ best players this season. Comes into the game after being subject of alleged racist abuse by a Slavia Prague player. Photo: Rob Casey - SNS Group
8. CM - Joe Aribo
Could be moved back into a central role with more attacking impetus brought into the final third. Photo: Alan Harvey - SNS Group
