Defiant James Tavernier believes 'anything can happen' as Rangers look to close the gap on Celtic at the Scottish Premiership summit when the pair meet at Parkhead on Saturday.
Celtic have maintained a nine point lead since the World Cup break despite Rangers winning all but one of their 15 games under manager Michael Beale.
It was a 2-2 draw when the Glasgow giants went head to head on league duty in January while Celtic came out on top to lift the Viaplay Cup six week's ago.
And Gers captain Tavernier is well aware that slow starts have been costly to his side in big games but he reckons the solid defensive unit displayed in recent weeks will stand them in good stead to pick up all three points against the Hoops and reduce the deficit to six points, with seven games remaining. "Well anything can happen in football, we all know that," Tavernier confessed. "But it is obviously important tomorrow to try and bring that gap down and that's what our full focus is.
