'It'd be nice' - Smirking Chris Sutton in Rangers vs Celtic admission

Chris Sutton has admitted he wouldn't mind Celtic losing to Dundee United - if they then won the league title against Rangers.

Celtic will seal the league crown against Dundee United this afternoon if they take even a point from Tannadice.

However, if they lose, and Rangers beat St Mirren, then Celtic could officially win the league against Rangers at Ibrox.

Celtic travel to Ibrox next Sunday with the possibility of walking out there as champions or potentially looking to end the title race at the home of their rivals.

"In some ways, it would be nice if they won it at Ibrox," said Sutton on Sky Sports.

Asked if he wanted Celtic to lose, he smirked: "It'd be nice."

"Celtic have made the league look easy, it's anything but," Sutton said discussing Celtic's dominance in recent years.

"When I came up in 2000, it was the third time Celtic had won a treble.

"They are winning them every other season now, and it is phenomenal."
