Celtic beat the Ibrox club in March, winning 3-1 with Rangers playing first team players such as John Souttar and Yilmaz. Carse scored one that day and Dawson got a brace. Back in December, the youngsters put on a show with an exciting 5-2 win.
Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic face Rangers at Celtic Park next weekend with a victory pushing the Scottish Champions towards two-in-a-row.
