The old trope about form falls down when you factor in Brendan Rodgers as the visitors target changing the status quo.
Vaclav Cerny would settle for a repeat of his last visit to Celtic Park. The Rangers winger bagged a winning goal for Ajax in their 2-1 Europa League victory over the Hoops back in November 2015. And Ibrox punters would love a similar outcome in the Old Firm derby this afternoon. Cerny believes his time at the Dutch giants - and their games against arch-rivals Feyenoord - will help him when it comes to the Glasgow equivalent.
That’s not the smallest derby! But I can’t wait to experience this one. I love these types of games. I’m not going to say what it brings out in me but I know I enjoy them. My last game there was in the Europa League, it was my European debut and a good night for me. I was more focused on everything that was going on with me than the atmosphere but it was my first game in Europe for Ajax. I was new to that kind of big stadium but it was a very nice night for the club and myself.
