We all know what’s on the way this weekend and I’m looking forward to putting that lot in their place once again.
Perhaps we’ve not been as good as last year but we’ve still been far better than everyone else and that was underlined by our win at Ibrox in the most recent edition of the fixture.
Time to face them again, then, and it should be a sweet affair knocking them out – providing that we perform to our maximum.
Ahead of the game, meanwhile, the club has moved to start building up towards kick-off with this tweet on their official Twitter account:
⚽️ @MDembele_10 has scored 6⃣ goals against Sunday's opponents.
Our favourite was the back-heel at Hampden, which was yours? 🤔 pic.twitter.com/U2UXVYNlH1

Moussa has certainly scored some great goals against the Gers and I’m in agreement with the person behind this tweet, that back-heel was superb.
What did other Bhoys fans mention, though? Let’s take a look at what’s been said:

Quick equaliser at Ibrox last season 2-1

Can’t decide between smashed volley or gentle lob at Ibrox….both at the Copeland Rd end.

The Verdict
A great collection of goals, then, and here’s hoping that there’s more on the way from our players this weekend.
My prediction: 3-1.
