Former Rangers boss Steven Gerrard will take on Celtic next week as he turns out for Liverpool legends in a charity match.

A star-studded Reds line-up will face the Hoops at Anfield for the event.

The game, which takes place on Saturday, March 25, will raise funds for the charity foundations of both participating clubs.

A number of former heroes on both sides have been confirmed to play. 

The latest, and undoubtedly the biggest name to be added to the list, is Gerrard.

The Reds legend was Rangers manager between 2018 and November 2021.

He left for Aston Villa but lasted less than 12 months as a Premier League manager before getting the sack.

Gerrard guided Rangers to their 55th league title in the 2020/21 campaign, also ending Celtic's ten-in-a-row quest.

So, having taken on Celtic multiple times in the dugout, the 42-year-old will now take to the field once more to face them on the pitch.

The likes of Dirk Kuyt, Luis Garcia, Djibril Cisse, and Robbie Keane will all be playing for the Reds too.

Daniel Agger, Martin Skrtel, Ragnar Klavan, Jamie Carragher, and Gregory Vignal will all feature too.

For the Hoops, they will have Artur Boruc, Stiliyan Petrov, Darren O’Dea, Stephen McManus, Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink, and Simon Ferry among their ranks.

Gerrard is still out of management but has held talks recently with Turkish outfit Trabzonspor. 

He's inevitably also been touted for the now-vacant Crystal Palace gig.

Meanwhile, the final two Old Firm fixtures of the Premiership campaign will be played with no away fans at Parkhead or Ibrox.

Michael Beale’s side is due to make the trip across Glasgow on Saturday, April 8 for the third league meeting this term and no date has yet been set for the fourth fixture that will take place after the top-flight split.

But we can reveal that both of those clashes will be attended by home supporters only following discussions between the clubs in recent days.

The Old Firm showdowns have had limited traveling support for several seasons now and around 800 fans are housed at Ibrox and Parkhead as the away side finds themselves outnumbered off the park.

It has been agreed by both clubs that this was the best way forward and a joint decision has been reached that will once again dramatically change the sight and sound of derby day in Glasgow after issues at both stadia in recent campaigns.
