After the SPFL announced the dates of the post-split fixtures, Rangers fans, hungry for retribution, would’ve been drawn to one fixture.
The final Old Firm derby of the season will take place on Sunday the 12th of May. Celtic will come to Ibrox and Rangers will have the chance to exact their revenge.

But there is one man who’ll be looking for personal retribution more than any other come the match. And making Gers fans nervous at the same time.
Alfredo Morelos will have served his suspension and be ready to play for Rangers by the time the game comes round.
This means the Colombian could well have one final chance to put Celtic to the sword in a Rangers top.
Despite delighting fans by signing a new contract with the club, there’s every chance Alfredo could be on his way out in the summer.
If he leaves without notching against our rivals it could well leave a sour taste in his mouth. If he scores, he’ll leave a bad taste in theirs.
Not only that, but Alfredo has not yet proven he can leave his mark on the fixture. Other than a black one.

In the last game, he took the bait and wound up letting everyone down.
He’s since apologised, and we’ve since moved on, but this is Alfredo’s chance to show the world why we rate him so highly.
Whether it’s Alfredo Morelos’ last Old Firm game or not, he must grab the chance to make an impression on this one.
And silence his doubters in the process.
