Meanwhile, Rodgers has described the absence of away fans from the fixture as a shame – but predicted that it could help Celtic to record a triumph over Rangers at Ibrox.
The 50-year-old admitted he is looking forward to being involved in the world-famous fixture for the first time since returning to Parkhead as manager back in June.
However, the Northern Irishman is disappointed there will be no travelling supporters inside the ground due to a dispute between the Glasgow giants’ respective boards over ticket allocations and safety issues.
"It’s just a real shame that there are no away supporters in terms of the game itself,” said Rodgers.
“I think it’s a shame for supporters not being able to be there and a shame for players as well.
"When you are an away player, even a home player, and you run out to these games at Ibrox to see the away end full it was a brilliant feeling.
"It was brilliant for a Celtic manager and player and I’m sure it was a great feeling as well for a Rangers player to run out and want to prove to their own supporters how much they want to win."
