Celtic host Hearts in the Scottish Premiership this afternoon.
Brendan Rodgers' side are three points ahead of Rangers after the first post-split matchday.
And he'll be aiming to extend that gap to six points - overnight at least - as Celtic face Hearts at Parkhead on Saturday. Rangers don't play until Sunday at 1pm against Kilmarnock.
For Rodgers, there will be the added incentive of going for victory against Hearts having lost to the Tynecastle club on the last two meetings.

Celtic had won 4-1 away in Edinburgh against Hearts in October but have since suffered two losses to Steven Naismith's side.
The first, a 2-0 defeat at Celtic Park in December before Hearts again triumphed over the league leaders at Tynecastle on March 3 with the same scoreline.
Hearts have all but sealed third in the Scottish Premiership with an 11-point lead over Kilmarnock in fourth - who they drew with last weekend - with just four matches left.

We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
