Two-Horse Race for Premiership Title

Published May 6, 2026 · Updated May 6, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

The Scottish Premiership title race has narrowed to a two-horse contest between Hearts and Celtic after Rangers' hopes effectively ended with a seven-point deficit to leaders.

Hearts moved seven points clear of Rangers with a 2-1 victory over their rivals, re-establishing their three-point lead over Celtic. Rangers' title hopes are mathematically alive but practically over with just nine games remaining.

The next fixtures are crucial: Hearts travel to Motherwell while Rangers face Celtic. A Rangers win coupled with a Hearts victory could see the title potentially sealed before the final day when Hearts visit Celtic Park. sportbet.reviews
