Match preview

Can Rangers keep pace with Celtic at the top of the table?

On Saturday, James Tavernier’s penalty followed by Glen Kamara’s neat finish saw the Light Blues beat St Johnstone 2-0 at Ibrox.

This means Mick Beale has accumulated 22 points from eight games since taking over a manager, only failing to beat Celtic so far.

Nevertheless, the Gers remain nine points adrift the leaders, with those two not meeting again until Easter weekend.

So, all Rangers can do is continue winning, and hope their fierce rivals slip-up along the way.

This is certainly Rangers’ toughest test between now and the next Old Firm, given that Hearts are third, seven points clear of fourth.

The Jambos were held to a goalless draw by Livingston on Sunday, but this extended their unbeaten streak to nine Premiership matches.

Robbie Neilson’s side look very much set for a second successive third place finish, and another season of UEFA group phase football.

Despite all the strides forward Heart of Midlothian have made in the last year or so, their record against Rangers remains pitiful.

The Gers have won their last six meetings with the Jambos, including a 2-0 victory in last year’s Scottish Cup Final, and a 4-0 victory when they last visited Gorgie in October.

This time, will the Hearts supporters have something to celebrate at Tynecastle?
