"Victory for one and defeat to the other (so long as the one doing the winning is Hearts) and it will be over. As you're likely to know by now, if it isn't settled tonight it'll be decided when the top two face each other on Saturday. Rangers meanwhile host Hibernian tonight: Hibs, currently fifth, could still overtake Motherwell in fourth or be overtaken by Falkirk in sixth, but Rangers will come third whatever they do in their last two matches."
"And tonight it might even be decided: league leaders Hearts host Falkirk while Celtic, just one point behind with two to play and coming into the game on the back of five successive league wins, head to Motherwell. Victory for one and defeat to the other (so long as the one doing the winning is Hearts) and it will be over. As you're likely to know by now, if it isn't settled tonight it'll be decided when the top two face each other on Saturday."
"I've just assumed Celtic are going to win their game, I've had it in my head that we're going to the last game and I'm prepared for that. Listen, there's no easy games for anybody, nothing's straightforward. Motherwell are a more than capable team. They were fully committed against us and I'm sure that'll be the same again against Celtic. We have been trying to hold off a couple of heavyweights for a long time now."
"We've managed to see off Rangers and we've got to try and see off Celtic over the next two games. I think the facts show we're coping brilliantly. We've already broken a club record in terms of points tally and we've got a Champions League qualifier alr"
Hearts host Falkirk while Celtic visit Motherwell in a title race that could be settled immediately. Hearts lead the league, and Celtic are one point behind with two matches remaining, entering on a run of five straight league wins. If Hearts win and Celtic lose, the title is decided for Hearts; otherwise it will be settled when the top two meet on Saturday. Rangers host Hibernian, with Rangers guaranteed to finish third in their remaining fixtures. Tonight’s matches begin at 8pm BST, and Hearts manager Derek McInnes expects Celtic to win and focuses on preparing for a decisive final game.
