Rangers must still believe the title isn't gone but that back-to-back derby wins against Celtic are a must.
Michael Beale has only lost to Ange Postecoglou and co since his arrival last year in the Viaplay Cup final as Rangers attempt to keep pace with the rampant league leaders. Postecoglou's men haven't tasted defeat since September and will meet the Light Blues at Hampden again next month in the Scottish Cup semi-final.
Beale was mere minutes away from making his Old Firm debut as boss a win before league top scorer Kyogo Furuhashi netted a late equaliser in January. And Ibrox hero Charlie Miller is warning the Englishman it must be six points from the next two league games including going to Celtic Park and getting the win.

He said: "Going to Celtic Park and winning puts a marker down. But the mentality has to be right. Some of Rangers’ players have it because they’ve done it before. But others haven’t experienced it yet. Winning any Old Firm game was brilliant. At Ibrox you were always expected to beat Celtic.
"But winning at Parkhead was amazing. You took more satisfaction out of beating them on their home ground. Rangers have to believe the title isn’t over yet.
"But they must win the next two Old Firm games to have a chance. From the outside, of course, it looks like it’s done. Celtic are playing too well right now to lose it.
"But if Rangers play out of their skin and get six points from the next two derbies, it’s all to play for.”
