It's set to be a record breaking season for Celtic as Ange Postecoglou's defending champions zero in on another league title - and have a Treble within their sights.
The Hoops moved 12 points clear of Rangers to virtually secure the trophy last weekend and now know just ten points will mathematically secure the title for the second year on the spin. They know it's in the bag, but Postecoglou will be demanding they keep their foot on the throttle right until the very end as they look to cement their status as one of the best sides the domestic game in Scotland has ever seen.
There are records to be broken, many of which they set themselves and thought would never be surpassed. But it's a special Celtic team and one which stands a very real chance of writing itself into the history books. Here, Record Sport take a look at some of the accolades still up for grabs beyond the obvious.
Most points - 106
Brendan Rodgers' brilliant 2016/17 Celtic side is the benchmark for so much of domestic football in Scotland and it's no wonder why. In charging to the title, they didn't lose a single game, drawing just four to smash the 100-point barrier and set the bar seemingly impossibly high.
But with just seven games left of this season, Postecoglou's Hoops have a chance. Defeat to St Mirren means they can't finish the season Invincible but they can still surpass that points total regardless.
They currently sit on 88 and with seven games left to play, they have the potential to add 21 points - which would take them to a previously unheard of 109. It means they have a small margin for error, although one defeat would prevent them from breaking the record outright and that's something they will be determined to avoid.
Most goals scored - 116
The goals have been flowing under Angeball with Kyogo, Jota Liel Abada and Daizen Maeda all in double figures already. And they will need to keep it up if they are to surpass another record currently held by the Parkhead club. Willie Maley's brilliant pre-war side in 1916 fired an incredible 116 goals - a figure they've come close to since (115 in 1936, 114 in 1938) but never quite touched.
Rodgers' side holds the post war record of 106 and with Celtic having racked up 98 already, it's a probability they will soar beyond that marker and finish closer to the all-time record. To set a new benchmark they would need to score 18 in their last seven games, an average of around 2.6 per game. Doesn't sound like an easy feat, until you realise they've averaged 3.2 per game so far...
Most wins - 35 (Rangers 1920/21 - 42 game season)
Scoring goals is all well and good but it gets you nowhere if you don't win games. Fortunately for Celtic, they seem to have no bother doing that either.
Winning 31 of their 33 so far, they have made their charge to title look straightforward and realistically, they need just three more wins to secure the title given the dramatic goal difference chasm of 29 between them and Rangers. In winning 33 games, they are just two away from surpassing Rodgers' record of 34 wins in a 38 game season.
The all-time record of 35 was set by Rangers in 1921. Five wins from seven would blow that away in four fewer games, highlighting just how remarkable their run has been under Postecoglou.
