Goodwin wants repeat against other half of Old Firm
Jim Goodwin has called on Dundee United to replicate the level of performance they produced in their victory over Celtic as they bid to derail Rangers' Scottish Premiership title bid on Saturday. United defeated the other half of the Old Firm 2-0 at Tannadice in their last match before the international break to leave Martin O'Neill's side five points adrift of leaders Hearts. "We've got to take a lot of confidence out of that Celtic game," manager Goodwin said looking ahead to facing second-top Rangers, with whom they have drawn 2-2 home and away this season.
"I thought it was really dominant and it's not very often over the last few years have I been able to say that when you're playing against a team with the quality that Celtic have got. "Going to Ibrox is slightly different. Rangers are at home, they don't often lose too many games in the league.
There's so much at stake for both teams as well. "Obviously Rangers can't afford any slip-ups, they can't afford the gap at the top to widen and, from our own perspective, we're still pushing for the top six, albeit we need all the cards to fall in our favour. " United must win their final two matches and hope Falkirk lose both of theirs to have a chance of edging into the top six on goal difference when the Premiership splits into two for the final round of fixtures.
