""It's not a position that the football club has found itself in recent years," O'Neill said. "Generally speaking, they've gone clear and there's been no opposition. "There's been plenty of opposition this year, not just from Rangers but obviously from Hearts. "So it is a big, big change, not something that a number of these players have been used to. You have to get used to it. You've been chasing, you have to keep chasing.""
"Celtic need to get the better of arch-rivals Rangers this lunchtime to keep their Scottish Premiership title hopes alive. Martin O'Neill's men go into the Old Firm clash at Parkhead four points behind leaders Hearts following the Jambos' 1-1 draw at Motherwell last night. It is an unfamiliar position for Celtic to be the hunters but O'Neill thinks they are embracing the challenge."

Celtic enter the Old Firm match at Parkhead four points behind Premiership leaders Hearts after Hearts drew 1-1 at Motherwell. Celtic are in an unfamiliar role as challengers rather than leaders, with Martin O’Neill emphasizing the need to keep chasing as opposition increases from both Rangers and Hearts. Rangers’ recent loss to Hearts has largely ended their title challenge, but they aim to make a major impact on Celtic’s aspirations. Celtic face a lengthy injury list including Colby Donovan, Julian Araujo, Kasper Schmeichel, Callum Osmand, Adam Montgomery, Cameron Carter-Vickers, and Jota, while Daizen Maeda is fit after limping off. Rangers have only one notable absentee, Bailey Rice, and the match kicks off at 12:00pm with coverage on Sky Sports and streaming via Sky Go.
