"I thought the Old Firm Derby was a terrific game on Sunday. The Scottish game has flaws - technically and physically it might not be the best - but it seems to at least give a lot of entertainment. The Dundee versus Hibernian game as well was brilliant to watch."
"The Scottish games over the weekend had much more to them in terms of shots, tackles and chances - it was breathless at times! The Arsenal game on the other hand just felt cerebral, it's not as enjoyable or exciting to watch."
"Following another weekend of drama in the Scottish Premiership title race, odds have been slashed on Hearts to lift the title. Derek McInnes' side are now as short as Evens to go all the way having previously been 11/8, while Rangers and Celtic have seen their odds drift to 5/2 after sharing the derby day spoils on Sunday."
The Scottish Premiership title race intensifies as Hearts maintain their lead at the top of the table following a dramatic Old Firm derby between Celtic and Rangers that ended in a draw. The stalemate allowed Motherwell to close the gap on the Glasgow clubs. Gordon Strachan praised the entertainment value of Scottish football, comparing it favorably to the English Premier League. He highlighted the excitement of recent Scottish matches, noting they featured more shots, tackles, and chances compared to defensive, set-piece-dependent English games. Betting odds reflect Hearts as even-money favorites, with Celtic at 5/2 to win five-in-a-row, Rangers at 5/2 for their first title in five years, and Motherwell at 12/1.
