With the title race appearing to be heading towards a thrilling conclusion, Celtic supporters will be relying on Brendan Rodgers to secure the championship following a challenging season.
Significant injury setbacks have contributed to a decline in form, allowing the Ibrox club to overtake them last month after surrendering a seven-point lead at the top of the table.
However, Rangers themselves stumbled under the pressure of leading the title race for the first time, faltering against Dundee and Ross County. As a result, Brendan Rodgers’ team now sits three points clear at the summit.
As the highly anticipated Glasgow Derby approaches, it seems that the title could go either way with only four games remaining. However, Andy Walker holds a different opinion.
The former Celtic striker is confident that Celtic will emerge victorious this season. While he acknowledges that Rangers have a chance of securing the treble, Walker believes that Celtic will finish the season strongly.
During an interview on The Go Radio Football Show, Walker stated, “There is potential for Rangers to win the treble, but I don’t think they will achieve it. I believe Celtic will win the double. They possess the players who can cross the finish line.”
He further emphasized the importance of winning the title, stating, “Even if Rangers secure two trophies, the primary objective at the start of the season is to be the best in the country. The financial benefits of qualifying for the Champions League further distance you from your closest competitor.”
Undoubtedly, Celtic fans will be hoping that Walker’s prediction comes true. After the events of this season so far, failing to secure the title is simply unthinkable.
Equally unthinkable is allowing Rangers to reap the rewards of Champions League qualification. With automatic entry into the group stages guaranteed, the financial advantages that accompany it could establish Celtic as the dominant force for years to come.
