The impressive Celtic numbers across board as Ange Postecoglou closes in on back to back titles

Celtic are closing in on the Premiership title with hopes of a domestic Treble alive and kicking.

Ange Postecoglou's men moved 12 points clear of Rangers at the league summit last time out as his defending champions came out on top in a five-goal thriller at Parkhead. Kyogo Furuhashi - as he has done so often this season - netted a double while Jota was also on target for the home side with Light Blues skipper James Tavernier grabbing two of his own to make it 100 goals for the Ibrox side.

Like last season, the Hoops won the first domestic trophy on offer this season in the shape of the League Cup after defeating Rangers at Hampden Park. Both sides return to the same stage at the end of the month in the Scottish Cup semi-final and should the Hoops defeat Michael Beale for a third successive Old Firm - they will be heavy favourites to go on and complete a domestic clean sweep with Falkirk or Inverness awaiting in the season finale.
