On Sunday, Rangers take on Celtic in the final Old Firm of the season during the penultimate round of SPL fixtures.
After last weekend’s win over Hibernian, Steven Gerrard has a selection headache on his hands.
Should he keep the faith with Jermain Defoe? After all, he’s got three in his last five outings, including the winner on Sunday.
Or should he bring back Alfredo Morelos? The Colombian has 29 goals in all competitions this season, but he let the side down badly with his red card at Parkhead last month.
If Gerrard is unforgiving and opts for the former option, it could derail Morelos’ quest for history.

It’s an obvious point, but if the manager continues to prefer Defoe up front, Morelos’ lead becomes extra vulnerable.
Edouard will lead the line for Celtic at Ibrox, and then at home to Hearts on the final day. Cosgrove has the Jambos and Hibs in his sights before the season is out.
It would be a great shame if the 22-year-old Ger fell short at the final hurdle. If he does, though, it will be himself who is to blame, rather than his manager.
