Sutton Rules Out Celtic's Title Hopes, Tips Hearts or Rangers for Victory
Former Celtic striker Chris Sutton has expressed his doubts about his old team's chances of winning the title, suggesting it's a two-horse race between Hearts and Rangers. With just five games left in the season, the margin for error is minimal. Sutton's comments came after a dramatic weekend that saw all three title contenders secure wins, with Hearts maintaining their one-point lead over Rangers and Celtic trailing by two points. Despite Celtic's 1-0 win over St Mirren, Sutton believes they face an uphill task in retaining their crown. "It's impossible to predict, but I think it's between Hearts and Rangers," he said. The title race is set to go down to the wire, with each team facing high-pressure matches. Rangers' focus now shifts to their upcoming game against Motherwell, who have struggled lately but could still pose a significant challenge. Scott Arfield, a member of Rangers' 2021 title-winning squad, cautions against ruling out any of the contenders, emphasizing the importance of finding a way to win in the season's final stretch.
