Rangers have more chance of title than Celtic - Sutton

Spor dünyasında son dakika haberi: Rangers have more chance of title than Celtic - Sutton Image source, SNS Image caption, Rangers are one point behind Celtic and four behind Hearts with four matches to play By Kheredine Idessane Sport Scotland senior reporter Published 22 minutes ago Former Celtic striker Chris Sutton believes arch-rivals Rangers have more chance of winning the Scottish Premiership this season than the Parkhead club. That is despite Danny Rohl's men falling four points behind leaders Hearts - and being displaced by Celtic in second place - after Motherwell's weekend win at Ibrox. While some bookmakers now have Martin O'Neill's charges as favourites to defend their crown, Sutton - who won the domestic treble and reached the 2003 Uefa Cup final under O'Neill - doesn't believe his old side will come out on top.

When asked on Radio 5 Live's Monday Night Club whether he thought Rangers have more of chance than Celtic of emerging victorious from the fascinating three-way battle for the title with Hearts, Sutton was unequivocal. "Bearing in mind Celtic haven't beaten them and they've got to go to Celtic Park and it wouldn't be a great surprise . Celtic are finding a way but I do not think that's sustainable.

"I watch Celtic every week. Even on Saturday night against Falkirk, they just aren't convincing. "At this moment in time under Martin O'Neill they are finding a way but I don't believe, and I've maintained this for a while, that Celtic can win these remaining four games.

I really don't believe it. "I'm not sure Celtic will go to Hibs and get a result. They won there earlier this season but Hibs beat them at Parkhead and drew at Parkhead.

Celtic haven't beaten Hearts and Rangers all season. " Rangers blink but twists still to come in colossal title race Published 20 hours ago Will doubters believe in Hearts' title chances now? Published 1 day ago Listen: The Monday Night Club Not only does Sutton doubt Celtic's ability to reel in Hearts' three-point lead at the top, he doesn't feel it would reflect particularly well on Scottish football were O'Neill - in his second spell as interim manager after the departures of both Brendan Rodgers and Wilfried Nancy - to walk away with a fourth top-flight title, 22 years after his most recent.

"I don't think it would necessarily be a great look; they've been through three managers this season," Sutton added. "Martin O'Neill's been in twice in these emergency roles. Some Celtic fans are saying it would be the greatest title triumph ever, when they've been that bad, to get it over the line.

" 'Hearts find a way to win' What's beyond doubt, for Sutton, is the credit Hearts are due for maintaining such a strong title push.
