AI Summary

Former Celtic striker Chris Sutton asserts that Rangers have a better chance of clinching the Scottish Premiership title this season compared to their rivals, Celtic. This statement comes despite Celtic currently sitting in second place after a recent weekend where Motherwell's victory at Ibrox displaced them.

Sutton highlights the current standings, noting that Rangers are four points behind the league leaders, Hearts. While some bookmakers favor Celtic to retain their title, Sutton remains skeptical about his former team's prospects.

In a discussion on BBC Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club, Sutton stated, "Yes," when asked if he believes Rangers have a greater chance than Celtic in the fierce three-way title race.

Key points from Sutton's analysis include:

  • Celtic have not beaten Rangers in the league this season.
  • Upcoming matches at Celtic Park could be pivotal; Sutton suggests a Rangers victory wouldn't be surprising.
  • He expresses doubts about Celtic's ability to sustain their performance, stating, "I do not think that's sustainable."
  • Observing Celtic's recent outings, including their match against Falkirk, he finds them unconvincing.

Sutton concludes with a stark prediction, indicating he doesn't foresee Celtic winning their remaining four games, especially with challenging fixtures ahead against teams like Hibs. He notes their struggles against both Hearts and Rangers throughout the season.
