Hearts host Falkirk at Tynecastle on Wednesday, where they are unbeaten in the league this season. At the same time, Celtic travel to face fourth-placed Motherwell.

If Derek McInnes' side win and the reigning champions lose, they would claim the title for the first time since 1960 - a historic feat for a non-Old Firm club since the 1980s. That is the only scenario that would prevent it going to the final day at Celtic Park.

Celtic cannot win the title before Saturday, even if Hearts lose on Wednesday and they defeat Motherwell. In that case, O'Neill's side would go into the last match needing to avoid defeat at home to win a 14th title in 15 years. A three-point lead with four-goal advantage in goal difference could seal Hearts' success, but the race remains razor-sharp.

This high-stakes finale underscores the epic intensity of Scotland's top flight, with Hearts aiming to dethrone Celtic's dominance. The outcome could redefine the league's competitive balance for decades.
