Hearts, Celtic Left in Two-Horse Title Race

Hearts' 2-1 win over Rangers has narrowed the Scottish Premiership title race to just two contenders, with the Edinburgh side holding a three-point lead over Celtic.

Hearts' 2-1 victory over Rangers has effectively ended the Ibrox club's title hopes, with Danny Rohl's side now holding a commanding seven-point advantage. The Edinburgh club's win has re-established their three-point lead over Celtic in a two-horse race for the Scottish Premiership title.

With nine games remaining, Rangers would need Hearts to drop points in all remaining fixtures while winning all their own games to have any chance. The Glaswegian side could assist their rivals by beating Celtic on Sunday, which would give Hearts the opportunity to clinch the title with a win against Falkirk on Wednesday. Meanwhile, Hearts face a tricky away fixture against Motherwell, whom they have only beaten once in three meetings this season. forumteam.blog
