The odds favor Rangers slightly. They have the advantage of a home fixture while defending champions Celtic has a potentially awkward trip to Rugby Park, just four days after its mentally and physically draining UEFA Cup final defeat by Porto. I am inviting much flaming. Bring it, I say, BRING IT!
odds are stacked in Rangers favour. -They're playing at home. -They have a one goal advantage in goal difference. -Celtic are shattered after playing 120 minutes in the 90 degree heat of seville on wednesday. -the celtic players will shattered after losing the final Rangers look big favorites.
I hope rangers win the league as i don't like Celtic at all. Celtic should be really tired for this game so hopefully they will lose/draw and ranger will win.
Rangers don't have a 1-goal advantage in goal difference. The goal difference for both teams are identical. Rangers scored 1 more goal. If they both win 1-0, then Rangers will be champs. If Rangers win 1-0 and Celtic win 2-1, then it will be a deadlock, i.e. playoffs. When they squandered an 8-point lead, I am not so sure...
Rangers will be favorite because- 1:Celtic had to play the UEFA cup final in midweek and it went to extra-time. 2:They lost. 3:It was 90 degrees. 4:Rangers are playing at home, Celtic are playing away. 5:If they both win by the same score Rangers will win on goals scored. Still, Celtic have managed to pull back an 8 point deficite in recent weeks...
After seeing Celtic play Porto, I don't think they will beat Rangers. Rangers will be better rested, and Celtic will be tired after their match against Porto. Also, Celtic's players are on an emotional down right now since they lost.
