Rangers will clash heads with Celtic at Hampden Park this Sunday as the two sides look to earn a win in the semi-finals of the Scottish FA Cup. The Gers suffered a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Aberdeen recently. In contrast, the Hoops secured a 1-1 draw at home against Motherwell last weekend.
Rangers Vs Celtic: Talking Tactics
Michael Beale will set his team up in a 4-2-3-1 formation and might ask his players to move the ball well and create a handful of decent chances to win this contest.
Angelos Postecoglou will opt for a 4-2-3-1 formation as well and could instruct his men to defend their penalty box well and cause problems for the opposition on the counter.
