The Scottish Premiership title race enters its concluding phase this weekend following a break in the domestic schedule. Celtic currently lead the table with 74 points from 29 fixtures, according to Sky Sports. Rangers occupy second position with 71 points and hold one game in hand over their Glasgow rivals.
Both teams face away fixtures as the competition resumes. Rangers travel to play Hibernian at Easter Road on Saturday, while Celtic visit Perth to face St Johnstone on Sunday. The results of these matches will determine the gap at the top of the standings before the league split occurs in April.
According to The Guardian, the upcoming Old Firm derby scheduled for April 6 is expected to be a decisive factor in the championship outcome. Rangers have won 23 matches this season, whereas Celtic have recorded 23 victories and five draws. Both clubs have confirmed no fresh injury concerns following the international period, per club statements released earlier today.
