But Rodgers dismissed the idea his team will go into Saturday's Scottish Cup final feeling they have the psychological advantage."You can never have that arrogance. We respect every opponent we play, whether it’s Rangers, Raith or whoever. He added his team "have been on fire the last few months". They have lost just once since late December, a 24-game run during which they have played Rangers three times - winning two and drawing the other.
But his priority is to deliver once again for the fanbase in a first Old Firm Scottish Cup final since 2002.
