Barry Ferguson hints at Celtic 'surprise' from Michael Beale with Rangers starting XI twist

dailyrecord.co.uk

Barry Ferguson reckons Michael Beale will spring a surprise on Celtic this weekend. The Rangers boss takes his team across Glasgow knowing that defeat will see them slip 12 points behind their bitter rivals and well and truly end the title race, if it's not over already.

Victory at Parkhead could maybe breathe new life into Rangers in their attempts to reel in the Champions, but they’d still be relying on snookers with only one more Premiership meeting between the two to come after the split.

Beale’s last two attempts have resulted in a 2-2 draw at Ibrox and a 2-1 defeat in the Viaplay Cup final at Hampden - the only matches he’s failed to win since returning to Govan as boss.

Ferguson is hoping it will be third time lucky for Beale and is looking forward to seeing how he approaches the latest instalment between Scottish football’s big two.
