Neil Lennon Celtic newsCeltic can clinch the SPL title by beating Rangers at Ibrox tomorrow.

With Motherwell losing 2-0 at Kilmarnock Neil Lennon’s side can put the title beyond Motherwell and Rangers with a win at Ibrox.

Both clubs are 21 points behind the league leaders, if Celtic win at Ibrox they’ll go 24 clear with seven matches remaining.

After a goal-less first half Paul Hefferman put the home side in front five minutes into the second half.

In the 61st minute Hefferman doubled Kilmarnock’s lead from the penalty spot after a handball offence from Tom Hateley.

Motherwell needed to win to keep alive their distant title hopes but were unable to find a way back into the match.

Celtic are odds-on to win at Ibrox with Rangers out at 3/1.

The hoops look like going into the game without Gary Hooper and James Forrest who have both been toiling with injuries picked up in the League Cup Final defeat from Kilmarnock.

    Important that Neil Lennon picks the right team tomorrow. I think it will be pretty much certain that Wonga F.C. will play 4-5-1. We either match them with a 4-5-1 to contain them as they will be full of energy for the first 25 mins or so, then just pick them off. The other option is we play 4-4-2 and get our full backs forward to help the midfield. I hope we put on a real show tomorrow and win the league at Ibrox. Neil Lennon deserves this after what he has went through.

    Samaras is a must tomorrow and watch out for Elbows McCulloch!!

    Hope all Celtic fans round the world have a great day and stay safe.

    we need to go 4-4-2,because I dont think for a minute you can play at ibrox for 90 minutes, surrender two thirds of the park in pursuit of a game that is there to be won if you go for them .we do not have the defence for such a tactic, but we have an attacking force that can score goals if we adopt an offensive game.go for it, celtic.
