Chris Sutton believes the pressure is on Rangers ahead of Sunday's Old Firm showdown.
But the Celtic legend insists there's also plenty on the line for Ange Postecoglou's side.
The fierce rivals meet in the Scottish Cup semi-final at Hampden and the stakes could hardly be any higher.
The Hoops are aiming for a stunning treble while Gers are hoping to stop them, while aiming to get their hands on silverware this season both domestically and in the Europa League.
With so much debate over what to call the famous fixture, Sutton reckons the Hampden clash should be named the 'Desperation Derby' due to it's significance.
"Plenty of people get their knickers in a twist over what to call this game with some folk calling it the Glasgow Derby and others making Old Firm arches," he wrote in his Daily Record column.
"But this weekend it should be the Desperation Derby.
"And it’s not just for the reasons you think. Celtic fans will probably believe it’s just Rangers who will be desperate to get through this Scottish Cup semi-final.
"To them it’s the last chance saloon for the Ibrox club to get their hands on a domestic trophy with the Premiership already en route to Parkhead.
"I don’t see it that way. I don’t think the league is done and dusted yet for a start.
"There could yet be some more twists and turns to come.
"Celtic fans would sacrifice the Scottish Cup for the league trophy and all the rewards that it brings.
"I still believe it’s a big ask to beat Rangers another two times to make it four in a row.
"But if I were in that Celtic dressing room I would be just as desperate as Rangers to lift the cup – along with the Premiership.
" Ange Postecoglou’s side are close to doing something really special. I know Celtic have picked up Trebles for fun in recent years but if you look historically, these things don’t actually come around too often.
"When we did it under Martin O’Neill, it was the first for more than 30 years.
"What an opportunity they have this year to do it – especially when the notion sounded absolutely preposterous at the start of the campaign.
"I get the fact the pressure is on Rangers. Of course it’s on them.
"The prospect of ending the year without any silverware would have been completely unthinkable last August.
"You only have to look at their woeful cup record in the last decade as well to see they need to get their hands on a trophy.
"Celtic have already stuck the Premier Sports Cup in the cabinet but they need to be greedy for even more.
"They will need that hunger on Sunday because I don’t buy the suggestion my old club only need to turn up.
"That’s a dangerous mindset and I’d be willing to bet it’s not part of Postecoglou’s thinking."
