It’s a brave person to be calling the outcome of the Scottish Premiership title race between Celtic and Rangers at this stage of proceedings.

There are still eight games to go until the end of the campaign, including two big derbies at Ibrox and Celtic Park.

With just a couple of points separating the fierce rivals, it’s honestly hard to confidently say which way the silverware will be heading this year.

There’s a few more twists and turns left in this one and the evidence suggests Celtic will be pushed all the way, perhaps even to the final matchday.

Artur Boruc has never been one to shy away from an opinion, however, and he has firmly determined that Celtic will once again be champions this season.

Artur Boruc believes Celtic will beat Rangers to the title

The iconic goalkeeper has been speaking to The Sunday Post this weekend and declared: “The main objective of every season is to win the title and Celtic know it is in their own hands.

“I know it is very close and there is little between Celtic and Rangers in terms of points. But, overall, I think the better squad is at Celtic. They also have a number of players there who’ve won the Scottish Premiership title.

“Brendan Rodgers has also delivered lots of success in the past and I think he will do it again. I’m confident Celtic will be champions in May to make it three in a row. I’ll be happy for everyone inside Celtic Park and all of the supporters for that to happen.”

Celtic have certainly had the better of the meetings between the two sides this season so in a head-to-head battle we know the Bhoys can come out on top. The two remaining derbies could well provide a knockout blow if either side is defeated.

After the top six split, Brendan Rodgers’ side have three games at home and two away, in contrast to Rangers’ three away and two at home.

But we also know that the Bhoys have to go on a winning run that has been rare this season. Consistency is key but if Celtic do find that then there’s logic to the belief they will defend their crown.
