Charlie Nicholas floats Celtic 'vulnerability' theory as total Rangers write off leaves lingering Treble doubt

Concerned Charlie Nicholas has declared Hearts the "biggest threat" to Celtic's hopes of lifting a Treble this term as he wrote off Rangers silverware hopes.

Robbie Neilson's men have the chance to put a major dent in Ange Postecoglou's hopes of clean sweep of domestic honours this week as they face off against the Scottish Premiership leaders in a bumper midweek league fixture card, before they face off once again in the Scottish Cup quarter-finals on Saturday. With the Jambos enjoying a five point cushion over Hibs in third Neilson looks set to bring European football to Tynecastle for the second consecutive season, the Gorgie faithful will have one eye on silverware this term to cap off an impressive campaign.

Nicholas admits he has saw weak points in Celtic during their rout of St Mirren, and reckons Hearts will be able to exploit the openings during the double header. He insists clashes with Rangers "look after themselves" as he played down any chance that Michael Beale will bring a trophy to Ibrox this term.
