Falkirk star Callumn Morrison has named Rangers as the biggest team in Scotland but is eyeing a big League Cup upset when the two sides meet on Sunday [Not The Old Firm].
The 21-year-old signed for the Bairns in August, leaving boyhood club Hearts to pen a one-year deal at the third-tier side.
It’s proved an excellent move for both parties to date, so much so, that Morrison has already signed a contract extension.
The striker has scored six goals so far including four in his last three matches and he’s looking forward to testing himself against the Gers at the weekend.
“I’ve been in the right place at the right moment just now,” he said [Not The Old Firm]. “Hopefully, I can continue with these goals because they are flying in at the moment.”
“It’s a massive game for me. I think everyone looks forward to these games. The boys will want to take their chance against Rangers, the biggest club in Scotland.
“I’m looking forward to it. I think there will be confidence, we aren’t just going to sit back. It’s a cup game and anything can happen, there’s always an upset and hopefully, on Sunday it will be us.”
Falkirk have started the 2020/21 season excellently and are sitting pretty at the top of the League One table after six matches, while they finished ahead of Kilmarnock in Group E to reach this stage of the League Cup.
Morrison has been crucial to that early-season success and is clearly full of confidence heading into this tie.
However, the Gers have only conceded three goals in 15 domestic matches and while Steven Gerrard is likely to make multiple changes to his side for the trip to the Falkirk Stadium, he’ll be confident that his defence will be able to snuff out the attacking threat posed by the hosts and progress to the quarter-finals.
