To Sportscene analyst, Rangers’ lead over Celtic ‘hammered home’ as the first game of the season proved to be significant.
Michael Stewart has discussed the importance of the Giants’ first-ever home run of the season as they surge ahead in the battle for the championship.
When Rangers topped the Premiership table for the first time this season, Michael Stewart wouldn’t back down.
A victory over St Johnstone in Perth would move Philippe Clement’s team to the top of the standings. On Saturday, Celtic
conceded a late time equalizer in their 1-1 draw with Kilmarnock at Parkhead. And at McDiarmid Park, the Light Blues had no mercy as they scored three goals without receiving a response.
Prior to two well-earned penalties from James Tavernier, Mohamed Diomande began his goal scoring account with a thunderbolt.
After Clement oversaw a nine-point swing to take the lead, the attitude on either side of Glasgow could not be more different, with
the Ibrox team now favorites to win the league for the first time since 2021. Even though there is still a ton of football left to play, Stewart believes that this weekend will be crucial for the title fight.
He told Sportscene, “I think it’s significant because it’s the first time they’ve been able to get top of the table since Philippe Clement came in.”
It only maintains the momentum that was established upon that appointment. It just serves to emphasize the ascendancy that Rangers currently possess in the wake of Celtic’s setback yesterday.
