Celtic set to host Rangers in first Premiership post split fixture as another blockbuster derby awaits

Celtic and Rangers are set to collide in the first round of post-split Premiership fixtures.

The final stages of the campaign were teed up on Saturday as the top and bottom six were confirmed on a dramatic afternoon.

Hearts, Dundee United, Ross County and Motherwell have joined Glasgow's big two at the top end for the final five matches of the season.

And it's understood Ange Postecoglou and Giovanni van Bronckhorst will meet again at Celtic Park in the next round of league games.

With the city rivals poised to clash in the Scottish Cup semi-final on Sunday, April 17, the league meeting will likely arrive a week later on the weekend beginning April 23.

Celtic moved nine points clear at the top of the table on Saturday with a stellar 7-0 win over St Johnstone at Parkhead.

Rangers, in Europa League action on Thursday, travel to St Mirren on Sunday in a bid to close the gap and keep their already slim title hopes alive.
