'Rangers will be ready for Celtic' - Miller

Rangers striker Kenny Miller insists they will not fear Premiership champions Celtic when they meet in the Scottish Cup sem-final.

The Old Firm sides are set to clash at Hampden next month, following the draw for the last four of the competition.

And Miller believes that the players' faith in Mark Warburton's methods will give them the confidence to cause an upset.

The former Celtic player told Rangers' official website: There was every chance we were going to get them at some point, and as we said after the game yesterday, we don't fear anyone.

Whoever we drew was just going to be standing in the way of our goal which is to win the Scottish Cup, and I've said all along, we have to get past Celtic if we want to win it.

It will be a tough game as all the games are, but I am fully confident if we go about the job in the way we know we can that we can get the right result.

The manager has got us playing and has got us believing in the way we are playing, and that will never change no matter who we play.

If we can perform and do the right things that we do day in and day out, it can all come to fruition as it did yesterday.

I thought to a man the lads were excellent both offensively and defensively in terms of scoring goals, creating chances and keeping the back door shut.

It was a pretty whole performance from start to finish, and if we can go and emulate that and do the right things which we talk about all the time, then there is no reason why we can't go and get the right result.''

Miller, who is in his third spell at Rangers, is a veteran of Old Firm derbies but is one of only three members of Warburton's current squad who started last season's Hampden clash.

But the 36-year-old is confident his team-mates will be fully aware of the demands of the fixture.

There is only so much you can pass on to people, and I have said time and again that we have a really good group,'' he said.

They know what playing for Rangers is all about now - the penny has dropped for them really, really quickly, and you can see it in the way we play, when we score a goal and when the lads talk about it after a game.

This is 'the' big game obviously when you are playing your local rivals, so the lads will be well prepared for it, there is no doubt about that.

They know what the game is about, and we will be prepared, and we will be ready.''
