Walter Smith's team head into the Old Firm match four points behind rivals Celtic in the Clydesdale Bank Premier League, but arguably hold a psychological advantage after their 4-2 victory at Parkhead four months ago.

Miller, who scored twice in that memorable win, said: "This is a game you look forward whether it is at home or away.

"Obviously after the first result, which was massive, we have to make sure we get the same kind of result in front of our home fans.

"We have to win every game, never mind Celtic games. However, there is obviously a great deal of importance attached to this one.

"We are behind in the title race and we are at home so we have to make it count. Everyone is going to be so up for it so we just have to get the right result."

Rangers manager Smith fully expects Celtic to be on a revenge mission when they arrive at Ibrox.

As far as the Rangers boss is concerned, the last four months will have done nothing to soothe Celtic's anger and frustration at coming off second best.

But he insists his own players will be ready to face any backlash from their arch rivals.

He said: "Losing two games in a row is never a nice aspect.

"Celtic have shown in the latter stages of last season the pride they have in terms of being champions. Their desire to retain the championship was evident at the end of last season.

"Of course, they will be hurting a little bit and they will want to make amends for that game. We are aware of that situation."

Celtic head into the clash knowing they will still top the table regardless of events this weekend.

Smith does not believe defeat on Saturday would provide the fatal blow to his own side's hopes but admits losing further ground is not a prospect he wants to consider.

He said: "When you look at Celtic's consistency, it has been great considering they have had a few injuries.

"We've got to look at that and say, 'If we're going to catch them up, we have to do so ourselves and not rely on any other teams'.

"That's why the onus is placed firmly on us at the weekend.

"Sometimes, the league season goes up and down; sometimes you can find yourself in front and pegged back. There are all those aspects.

"It's not a fightback as such; it's just a continuing situation we are in.

"But it's one that we are aware, because of Celtic's four point lead at the moment, that we don't want to allow to be any more."

Smith believes Celtic's pride saw them triumph on the final day of last season after an impressive run of results and expects that determination to be on show again on Saturday.

"It's the pride you take in winning championships that's the biggest thing," he said.

"We got ourselves in front towards the end of last season and we had a number of fixtures to play.

"But, in the two games we had to play at Celtic Park, Celtic showed a desire to beat us, which showed the pride they have taken in winning the championship and wanting to keep the championship.

"They were asked to go on a run of games - I think they won the last seven or eight games - and they managed to do it.

"They have shown the pride and determination and that will be evident again at the weekend."
