They began a massive week with a 4-2 victory over Ross County.

Jordan White's late penalty pulled it back to 3-2 before Scott Arfield eventually put the game beyond the hosts.

Rangers had surged ahead through Joe Aribo and Connor Goldson header.

Harry Clarke responded after Alfredo Morelos restored the two-goal margin.

Gerrard's men are now only a point off the top and are away with a 1-0 lead against Alashkert of Armenia in the second leg of their Europa League play-off on Thursdat. Celtic then visit Ibrox for Sunday's Old Firm derby.

He told Sky Sports after the match:

"It was a really strong away performance, a lot of our attacking play was quality and we could have scored more goals,"

"I'd like to see us be more ruthless - I can see goals five and six there for sure if we'd really wanted it.

"We're still fine-tuning after busy summer late arrivals and people are getting up to speed."

Ross County reaction

 Ross County manager Malky Mackay then spoke with the BBC:

"I asked the players to make sure they stayed in the game for 90 minutes and we did that.

"When you go 2-0 down after 20 minutes, those are the sorts of game that can run away from you when you play Rangers and it can be six or seven, as has been seen in the past."
