The 414th Old Firm derby and the first of the 2022-23 campaign will take place at Parkhead when Scottish Premiership champions Celtic play host to Glaswegian rivals Rangers on Saturday lunchtime.
Both sides have made unbeaten starts to the new league season, but it is the Hoops who currently sit two points above the Gers at the top of the table.
We say: Celtic 3-2 Rangers
There is never a dull moment in an Old Firm derby and another entertaining contest between two in-form teams is to be expected this weekend.
Considering that Rangers look a little more vulnerable at the back, we think Celtic will continue to fire in front of goal and will edge past their Glaswegian rivals on home soil.

Two teams in the bottom half of the Scottish Premiership will do battle at Easter Road on Saturday as Hibernian play host to newly-promoted Kilmarnock.
Both sides head into this contest after winning only one of their opening five top-flight games so far this term.
We say: Hibernian 1-1 Kilmarnock
Although Kilmarnock have struggled at Easter Road in recent visits, they will fancy their chances of claiming maximum points against an out of-sorts Hibs outfit this weekend.
However, we feel that the hosts will have enough quality in their side to claim at least a point, even though they have a number of players on the sidelines.

Two teams who were eliminated from the Scottish League Cup in midweek will face off in the Premiership at the Toni Macaroni Stadium on Saturday as Livingston play host to Hearts.
While the visitors currently sit third in the table with 10 points from their opening five league matches, the hosts sit four points further back in seventh place.
We say: Livingston 1-1 Hearts
A closely-fought contest between two out-of-form sides who are keen to bounce back is set to take place at the Toni Macaroni Arena.
Hearts got the better of Livingston in all three league meetings last season, but we can see the hosts sharing the spoils on this occasion.

Two teams at opposing ends of the Scottish Premiership table are set to meet this Saturday when Dundee United make the trip to Fir Park as they face Motherwell.
The visitors are without a victory in the league this season, but coming off the back of a win in the Scottish League Cup, they will be aiming to kick on and change that.
We say: Motherwell 2-0 Dundee United
Dundee United might have picked up their first victory of the season in midweek, but when it comes to the Scottish Premiership they are still without three points.
Motherwell have been one of the strongest teams in the division so far, and with their attacking qualities they should have enough quality to take three points.

Ross County vs. Aberdeen (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Aberdeen will be looking to build on their strong start to the new campaign with a victory at the Global Energy Stadium where they will face Ross County in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday.
The hosts have picked up just three points from their opening five top-flight matches this term, while the visitors have accumulated nine points in the same period.
We say: Ross County 1-3 Aberdeen
Aberdeen have certainly started the better of the two sides so far this term and they will be the favourites to come out on top this weekend.
While Ross County have frustrated the Dons in recent meetings, we feel that the in-form visitors have more quality in the final third and should have few problems in securing maximum points.

St Johnstone will be hoping to secure only their second win of the Scottish Premiership campaign on Saturday when they host St Mirren.
The visitors have had a stronger start to the 2022-23 season, and head into this match on the back of three consecutive victories.
We say: St Johnstone 0-2 St Mirren
These are two teams in completely contrasting form, and that is something that will likely play into the overall result after 90 minutes on Saturday.
St Johnstone have struggled defensively this season, and considering the visitors have been able to shut up shop well, they should take all three points.
