Hearts Remain in Title Contention Despite Celtic Closing the Gap

Kris Boyd believes Hearts will not relinquish their grip on the Scottish Premiership title despite Celtic narrowing the gap to three points. Following a 3-2 defeat to Hibernian, Boyd thinks Hearts can regain control with their upcoming run of games. Celtic's chaotic 4-2 win over Livingston allowed them to halve the lead, but Boyd is confident Hearts will not crumble. With a game in hand, Celtic has the initiative, but Boyd believes Hearts' next fixtures could see them retake the lead. Derek McInnes' side was frustrated by their inability to do the basics right, allowing Celtic to close the gap. However, McInnes remains calm, focusing on the team's upcoming games to build momentum and confidence.
