Celtic is currently in a commanding lead as they reach their prime at the right moment, while their title contenders falter. Brendan Rodgers has always believed that with his strongest squad at his disposal, Celtic would be a force to be reckoned with. Despite the absence of captain Callum McGregor, the team is once again looking impressive.
As the finish line approaches, it is unlikely that Celtic will relinquish their advantage, regardless of the outcome of Rangers’ remaining game. The team’s ultimate goal this season is to win their 12th Premiership title in 13 seasons and secure a spot in the Scottish Cup semi-final against Aberdeen. A league and cup double is well within reach for Celtic this season.
However, there is still much work to be done to ensure that both trophies remain in the Celtic Park trophy room. Aberdeen has shown in recent meetings that they can pose a challenge to Celtic. But if Rodgers’ side performs at its best, they should secure a spot in the national stadium and finish the season on a high note. The next challenge awaits at Hampden on Saturday.
