Sutton Rules Out Celtic's Title Chances, Tips Hearts or Rangers for the Win

Former Celtic player Chris Sutton has expressed his doubts about Celtic's ability to secure their 14th league title since 2011, stating that the competition is now between Hearts and Rangers. With only five games remaining in the Scottish Premiership, the margin for error is minimal. Sutton's comments come after a dramatic weekend where all three teams emerged victorious, with Hearts maintaining their lead at the top of the table, one point ahead of Rangers, and Celtic trailing by two points. Despite Celtic's 1-0 win over St Mirren, Sutton believes it will be challenging for them to catch up. "It's impossible to predict, but I think it's between Hearts and Rangers," he said. The intense title race has left no room for error, with each team facing high-pressure matches, including upcoming clashes against each other. Rangers player Scott Arfield, who was part of the team that won the title in 2021, agrees that the next game is always the most crucial but emphasizes that all contenders still have a chance. The title race is expected to go down to the wire, with each team needing to find a way to win and capitalize on any mistakes made by their opponents.
