Goal Statistics

Celtic's defensive record is to be admired, Brendan Rodgers's men having conceded 1 or less in 11 consecutive Premiership outings. An average PG rating of 1.4 for Rangers makes sense in this context.

Rangers have been awful at the back of late, conceding 2 or more goals in 3 consecutive Premiership games. This run could continue, with Celtic's PG an impressive 2.0.
