Hearts Lead Scottish Premiership by 3 Pts Over Celtic, 4 Over Rangers — All Three Have 4 Games Left
The Scottish Premiership title race has reached its most compressed phase: Hearts (73 pts), Celtic (70 pts) and Rangers (69 pts) are separated by just 4 points with 4 games remaining each. Crucially, all three clubs face each other in the run-in — Hearts host Rangers on May 4, Celtic host Rangers on May 10, and Celtic host Hearts on May 16 — meaning the title will almost certainly be decided in direct confrontations.
