Graeme Souness claims Celtic's VAR 'luck' is why Rangers are trailing title race

Graeme Souness claims Celtic have enjoyed a big slice of VAR luck and that Rangers are trailing the title race due to refereeing decisions.

Ange Postecoglou’s side are nine points clear of their bitter rivals and such a chasm at the top has piled the pressure on Gio van Bornckhorst. The Dutchman is set to keep his job until the Premiership action resumes following the World Cup in Qatar, but needs results and quickly.

The Gers host the Hoops on 2 January in the second Old Firm clash of the season. There are another two to play before the campaign is out and maximum points could breathe new life into their challenge. Fall further behind though, and the Ibrox board will be expected to pull the trigger, especially after a Champions League campaign in which the Govan side managed the worst group stage return of any club to have taken part.
