Callum McGregor gets unanimous Celtic starting XI verdict from the Jury as Rangers key man for derby named

KEITH JACKSON: The question facing Brendan Rodgers is can he afford NOT to rush him back? McGregor is so often Celtic's main influence in this fixture and it's a game Rodgers can't afford to lose despite insisting common sense must prevail.

CRAIG SWAN: Yes. The captain is a leader and an inspiration. Just by being out there he'll drag the best out of his team-mates. If there's any way he can play then he must. Deal with later, later.

FRASER WILSON: McGregor is so influential, unless he is unable to run then he has to play. He was outstanding the last time these two met and when times are tough he's the one man more than anyone else that can lift the Hoops up a gear.

CRAIG SWAN: If Dundee can't fulfil a fixture due to their pitch being the problem, the SPFL might even have to consider the drastic prospect of a forfeit.

FRASER WILSON: You've got to be fair to
