Once again, Glasgow Rangers and Celtic are locked in a fierce battle for the Scottish Premiership title, with Ibrox and Celtic Park shaping up to be the battlegrounds for this year’s trophy.
The competition is intense, and the race is too close to call as both Philippe Clement and Brendan Rodgers fancy their chances of clinching the championship if they emerge victorious in all their remaining matches.
As football pundits debate over the potential winner, Robbie Savage alongside Chris Sutton shared their views on BBC 606. Sutton believes Rangers still have a fighting chance, noting, “It’s still in their hands, don’t count them out just yet.” However, Savage leans towards Celtic, stating, “Celtic have the edge now, especially with the upcoming crucial faceoff between the two teams. A draw wouldn’t be enough for Rangers if they hope to retain their title.”
Currently, Celtic holds a four-point lead over Rangers with a game in hand, making them slight favorites to lift the trophy. The momentum seems to be in Celtic’s favor, especially with the final Old Firm Derby scheduled to take place at Celtic Park, where a draw could suffice if they maintain their winning streak.
Despite the unpredictability of the Scottish Premiership, Brendan Rodgers’ Celtic side appears to have the upper hand in this closely contested title race. With only a handful of games left in the season, all eyes are on Celtic as they navigate their way towards potential glory.
