Celtic and Rangers Premiership title odds revealed as Hoops slight favourites to retain crown

Celtic have been installed as favourites with the bookies to retain their Scottish Premiership crown next season.

Ange Postecoglou's men were officially confirmed as champions last night after a 1-1 draw with Dundee United at Tannadice.

The result leaves the Hoops four points clear of Rangers at the top with just one game to play.

Finishing first also brings the added bonus of Champions League group stage football to Parkhead next season and a huge financial windfall from playing in Europe's elite competition.

After claiming back the title this season from derby rivals Rangers - Celtic are being backed as 4/5 favourites by Coral to lift the trophy once again next season.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst and Co have been priced at 10-11 to bring the trophy back to Ibrox in what the bookies believe will be a 'close tussle' between the pair.

In the immediate term the Light Blues have a huge week ahead of them as they bid to land a major European trophy and taste domestic cup success.

The Ibrox men face Bundesliga outfit Frankfurt in the Europa League Final next Wednesday night before facing Hearts at Hampden just 72 hours later.

Rangers are 23-20 to win the showpiece in Seville, which comes with the added bonus of direct entry to the Champions League with a number ONE seed.

Speaking about next season's title race, John Hill of Coral said: "Celtic are favourites to defend their title in the 2022/23 campaign, however, there is very little separating the champions and Rangers.

"We are expecting a close tussle next season between the two giants of Scottish football.

"This season could still end on a positive note for Rangers.

"They are 23-20 to pull off one more upset in this year's Europa League and lift the trophy.

"The Gers were as big as 66-1 at the start of the competition, so it has been an incredible run to the final."

Premiership title odds with Coral - 4-5 Celtic, 10-11 Rangers, 66-1 Hearts, 150-1 Hibernian, 200-1 Aberdeen
