The match, set to take place at Celtic Park, comes at a critical juncture in the season, with both teams demonstrating a strong desire for victory.
Celtic, currently experiencing a period of lacklustre form, is acutely aware of the stakes. A win for Rangers could, in time, propel them to the top of the table, adding significant pressure to the Celtic squad.
Rangers, on the other hand, are in a favorable position. They have two games in hand over their rivals, one of which is a home fixture against St Johnstone scheduled for Wednesday (tonight). A positive result in these matches could set the stage for Rangers to seize the league’s top spot, heightening the intensity of the December 30 derby.
Celtic confirmed that there would be no allocation of tickets for away fans at Celtic Park for the derby.
This decision is likely to amplify the home advantage for Celtic, but it also means the absence of atmosphere typically brought by the visiting Rangers fans.
With the tickets sold out and the stage set, the Celtic vs. Rangers derby promises to be a thrilling encounter, full of drama and intensity, as both teams vie to assert their dominance in one of the most eagerly awaited matches of the Scottish football calendar.
