Chris Sutton says Rangers can't catch Celtic if Neil Lennon's side win tonight

Chris Sutton insists a win for Celtic will mean the title race is over.

Rangers currently trail the leaders by 12 points in the Premiership, with Neil Lennon's men taking on Livingston at the Tony Macaroni Arena while Gerrard's side welcome Hamilton Accies to Ibrox.

Ally McCoist reluctantly agreed with Sutton's verdict following his former side's dramatic loss of form since the winter break.

Speaking on BT Sport, Sutton said: "If Celtic win here tonight I think the league is done", to which McCoist responded: "I do agree. Obviously it hurts me to admit it, but Rangers are looking for other teams to do them favours."

Looking forward to Celtic's game, midfielder Callum McGregor said: "We've not had great results the last couple of times, so it's important that we put that right tonight.

"Our mindset is we're trying to win every game, but we take this one as the next big game. We've prepared properly and we're here to get the three points.

"We know the pitch is going to be flat. It's a different test with the astroturf.

"You know it's going to be a physical game, a bit of a battle.

"We have to stand up to that and match that intensity."

Tonight's match kicks off at 7.45.
