  • Old Firm v Hearts hots-up, Buddies look like Brazil and Scottish Cup swansong for MON? The Warm-Up
    Apr 13 2026

    Two big comeback victories saw Hearts hold firm at the top of the William Hill Premiership and second-placed Rangers stay within touching distance.

    Celtic also kept their nerve in third with a narrow 1-0 win over St Mirren but, in the latest episode of The Warm-Up, Chris Sutton says that it is now a two-horse race in Scotland.

    The team also turn an eye to matters off the park and discuss the return of the Green Brigade to Celtic Park and ask if Celtic’s top goalscorer is good enough for the English top-flight, with suitors supposedly monitoring his progress.

    They also turn their gaze to this weekend’s Scottish Cup semi finals, to the William Hill Championship title race and look at Scottish football’s ongoing VAR headaches.

    Watch the full episode and tell the team what you think in the comments below.
