Scottish FA confirm Rangers vs Celtic referee appointment

Celtic Rangers SFA Don Robertson

The Scottish FA have put their faith in Don Robertson to referee the upcoming Rangers vs Celtic fixture.

The two Glasgow rivals will go head-to-head at Ibrox on January 2, with Celtic currently holding a 14 point lead at the top of Scottish Premiership. 

David Roome and Ross Macleod will assist Robertson - who has been a SPFL official since 2014 and FIFA listed beyond 2017.

While, the experienced Nick Walsh will be accompanied by Daniel McFarlane on VAR. 

Celtic were comfortable 3-0 winners when they last met on league duty. However, the outcome was settled on penalties during the recent Scottish League Cup final following a 3-3 draw.

Overall, Rangers have only enjoyed one victory in their last 14 meetings with Celtic in all competitions.
