Rangers’ missed points at Dens Park tonight have given Celtic a significant advantage in the title battle.
The 3-2 setback at Ross County was followed by a goalless draw at Dundee in a four-day turn of events that saw Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers move from having a must-win Glasgow Derby in May to now having a game that we can afford to lose.
Brendan Rodgers will be heartened by the 0-0 draw at Dens, Celtic fans are overjoyed, and Chris Sutton has offered his immediate reaction as the Parkhead rivalry takes on a whole new meaning.
