Confident Kenny Dalglish has named Celtic as the "team to beat" in the Scottish Premiership title race this season. However, he admits a "monumental effort" from Rangers could derail the Hoops bid to make it three titles in a row next season.
Michael Beale has been busy this summer with the Ibrox squad receiving a complete overhaul. Eight new signings are in the door so far this summer, and Jose Cifuentes expected to arrive from LAFC before the opening game of the season against Kilmarnock.
Despite the overhaul, Dalglish reckons that the Celtic side "packed with winners" will start the season as favourites - as he pointed to Brendan Rodgers' previous track record in Scotland.
The former Parkhead boss reckons if Light Blues boss Beale has any chance of claiming the title he will have to improve Rangers derby day record in recent seasons.
