Da🦂izen Maeda and Kyogo Furuhashi had put the Bhoys in control in the first half, with Rangers unable to mount a comeback.
🤪Rangers' best chance came inside 10 minutes, with James Tavernier picking out Rabbi Matondo, who thumped his header w▨ide from the edge of the six-yard box.
Kyogo thought he had broken the deadlock just one minute later, but his clinical fi🎉nish was disallowed as Nicolas Kuhn had just drifted🅠 offside before teeing him up.
Maeda's close-range effort did count in the 17th minute, with Alistair Johnson drifting in behiওnd Rangers' defence to set him up for a ta𒉰p-in.
And Kyogo would get on the scoresheetꦐ just before the break, driving a low shot through the crowded area and in from 30 yards out to put Celtic in control.
McGregor added the gloss in the 75th minute, netting inꦗ a third straight game as his long-range strike deflectedꦯ past Butland.
Data Debrief: Clement's derby woes go on
Celtic maintained their perfect start to tꦬhe season, with the Bhoys yet to concede in their four games so far. Kasper Schmeichel only had three saves to make, staying alert to deny Tavernier and protect his clean sheet late on.
But it was more misery for Gers boss Philippe Clement, who has now failed to win an Old Firm Derby in five attempts in all competitions (one draw, four losses); only Graeme Murty (also five) and William Wilton (eight) also failed to win any of their first five games against Celtic in charge of R💝angers.
As a whole, Rangers have not enjoyed their recent trips to Celtic Park - since the start of 2022-23,🐈 the🌺y have lost all five of their away games against Celtic. The last time that happened was in April 1980.
