View: Rangers surely won't be worried about Celtic in title race after what's been reported today

Rangers surely have no reason to worry about Celtic going into the final seven games in the William Hill Premiership.

The Gers are two points ahead of their Old Firm rivals and could go top of the table for at least a day if they beat Dundee United on 4 April.

Danny Rohl will undoubtedly be looking up the table as Martin O’Neill suffers a setback with Julian Araujo’s injury at Parkhead.

The Herald reports on 29 March that the right-back has been ruled out for seven to eight weeks, returning to parent club Bournemouth for treatment.

Rohl should be even more confident of beating O’Neill now that Celtic have potentially lost a key player for the rest of the season.

Rangers stars align for William Hill Premiership title push

Things have arguably gone from bad to worse for Celtic, who lost 2-0 to Dundee United at Tannadice Park in their last league game.

With O’Neill now suffering a setback with Araujo, whose performances have immensely helped the Hoops since moving to Glasgow on loan in January, the stars seem to be aligning for the Gers.

Rohl arguably doesn’t need to be bothered about the Parkhead side, who have looked weak and disjointed for most of the season.

The German manager should have his eyes firmly planted on Hearts and the Light Blues will be crowned champions if they win the final seven league matches.

Celtic didn’t look good playing without Araujo against Motherwell and Dundee, and it’s hard to see them catching up to their Old Firm rivals now.

Danny Rohl can do the unthinkable at Ibrox

Rohl’s arrival at Rangers was met with mixed feelings among fans, with many wondering whether the German manager was the right fit for the club.

The Ibrox faithful witnessed one of their worst starts to a league campaign under Russell Martin and had lost hope of being title challengers seven games in.

It’s undoubtedly a miracle that Rohl now has the Gers in conversation to finish top of the table and it was certainly unthinkable to see them lift the trophy a few months into the season.

Andrew Cavenagh and 49ers Enterprises also deserve credit for recognising their mistakes early on, with an exciting future ahead for the Govan side.
