Just one more match stands between Celtic and the title, and it comes against Hearts as Ange Postecoglou's side look to seal their second bit of silverware this season at Tynecastle on Sunday (May 7).
The Hoops make the short trip to the capital for the third time this season having won both their Premiership and Scottish Cup outings in Gorgie, the former bringing VAR chaos aplenty and the latter steering them towards the semi-final they would eventually go on to win against Rangers.
It has been a relentless effort from the Parkhead outfit having only dropped points three times in the league this season. But there will be no letting up from Celtic as three points will bring them a second league title under the Australian and move them a step closer to another Treble with Inverness standing between them and the Scottish Cup in June.

Their task is not as straight forward as hoped however, with Postecoglou confirming Cameron Carter-Vickers' season was over after with win over Rangers at Hampden, and Alistair Johnston ending his afternoon at Hampden wearing a moon boot.
Those two losses in the back four will prompt a change of plans at Tynecastle, with Anthony Ralston looking set for action in place of the Canadian full-back, and having made a handful of appearances it looks set to be a big afternoon for Yuki Kobayashi, who was handed 45 minutes in the quarter-final victory over Hearts.
He is expected to come in to partner Carl Starfelt, and they will be looking to avoid having to take the title clincher to Ibrox next weekend with no away fans present.
Reo Hatate wasn't quite firing on all cylinders against Rangers, so there could be scope for Aaron Mooy to replace the midfielder after his strike against Hearts inside two minutes on their last visit to Gorgie.
Up top it's as you were from the Rangers win, with the man of the hour Jota expected to retain his place over Haksabanovic after his goal scoring heroics at Hampden put Celtic into the Scottish Cup Final next month.
There is potential for the likes of Tomoki Iwata in place of Matt O'Riley and Hyeongyu Oh in the front three, but with the chance to clinch the title with four games to spare, you feel it could be full steam ahead with a very strong XI for Postecoglou on Sunday afternoon.
