  "account": "Former Celtic captain Scott Brown believes that a win for his old side against Rangers this afternoon \"changes the game\" for Martin O'Neill's team after a tough week. The Scottish champions go into the clash top of the table, with a five-point lead over Rangers. A win would stretch that lead to a commanding eight points. Brown was impressed with the Rangers' shape and spirit in the Ibrox clash, noting that they looked like they wanted the win more. Rangers manager Derek McInnes's tactical changes caught Brown off guard, highlighting McInnes's managerial prowess. Brown also pondered Celtic's tactical plan, suggesting that Martin O'Neill's preference for a 3-5-2 formation could have been more effective given his available players. He emphasized the need for Celtic to match Rangers' energy and willingness to win the match. Brown believes that who starts best could be crucial, emphasizing that Celtic needs to go back to basics and maintain the fight and hunger that has brought them success in the past.",
