Celtic captain McGregor seeks derby victory against Rangers

Celtic captain Callum McGregor aims to avoid a repeat of their recent 3-0 loss to Rangers in the upcoming derby at Parkhead. Despite a strong 16-point lead in the Premiership, McGregor emphasizes the need for focus and determination. Celtic had a free midweek, while Rangers played 120 minutes in a Europa League match before winning on penalties. McGregor believes Celtic's recent performance against Hibernian shows they are ready to start strong in the derby. McGregor noted that a good start can energize the crowd and create a positive atmosphere. He hopes to replicate the team's recent sharpness and intensity to secure a victory against Rangers.
