Dean Jones believes that Rangers are presently in a strong position to win the Scottish Premiership.

Jonest watched a “slugfest” between Rangers and Celtic in the Scottish Premiership.

The reporter believes that Philippe Clement’s team has a chance to win the title this year.

under the Belgian at Ibrox, with newfound optimism.

Rangers are now second in the table with 58 points, three behind league leaders Celtic,

who have a game in hand.”I do think they can win the title,” Jones told GIVEMESPORT.

“There will be new belief at Rangers, especially if they are given the opportunity to be the top club at

some stage,

as it has been a long time since they have been able to exercise any authority in that role.

“We’ve seen that when you’re the team following and catching up,

there’s less pressure and expectation tied to the scenario of trying to win the league.

That might be a drive for the Rangers as they try to win the championship.”

It feels like it’s going to be a slugfest from here on out, with these teams going at it game after game and

win after win.

But the Rangers have put themselves in a strong position, which is something I would not have predicted

earlier in the season.

Rangers are within touching distance of Celtic.

The Gers have had a remarkable comeback in recent months, thanks in large part to Clement.

The guy in the dugout has radically altered the situation at Ibrox,

which appeared dismal early in the season under his predecessor, Michael Beale.

Beale was immediately fired following summer transfer failures,

with the board taking its time finding the proper replacement.

And that patience has paid off handsomely, with Rangers doing admirably both domestically and in

Europe.

The Ibrox team has progressed to the Scottish Cup quarterfinals and the Europa League knockout stages

following their League Cup victory.
