Hearts arrived in Glasgow on the last day with an extraordinary prize still within reach: win the match and their 66-year wait was over. The hosts shut it down with a 3-1 victory. Five titles in succession, 56 altogether, but this one had made them sweat.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat followed was an unusually busy summer, even by Scottish football's standards. Martin O'Neill remained in charge of Celtic, while Rangers hired the man responsible for Hearts' challenge. Derek McInnes left Tynecastle for Ibrox and Lawrence Shankland made the same journey, giving Rangers a proven league scorer and leaving Hearts with two sizeable holes to fill.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe market currently has Celtic in front, with Rangers next and Hearts behind the Glasgow pair.

Each side meets the other 11 three times to begin with. After game 33, the league breaks into two.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe leading six then play one another once more, as do the bottom six. Five final fixtures bring every club to 38. Nobody crosses between the two groups once they have been formed, even when the team in seventh later collects more points than the one sitting sixth.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThat quirk gives the race for sixth a real edge. It can also change the meaning of a finishing-position wager in the weeks before the split, when one win may be the difference between looking towards Europe and spending spring in the bottom half.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFinish 12th and the drop is immediate.

Back the club you believe will be top after 38 matches.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRecent history points straight towards Celtic, but last season exposed the danger of treating the title as settled before Christmas. When assessing a contender, look beyond its strongest line-up. European trips, cup ties and winter injuries eventually ask questions of the whole squad.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"bvs-h3\"\u003eEach-Way Betting\u003c/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThere are two bets hiding inside an each-way selection. One half of the money goes on the title; the rest goes on the club making the places advertised beside the market. A £5 each-way selection therefore costs £10 altogether.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlways read the terms rather than assuming second place is covered. The number of places and the fraction paid can vary. A team that places without becoming champion only returns something from that half of the wager.\u003c/p\u003e\u003ch3 class=\"bvs-h3\"\u003eTop Six and Other Finishing Positions\u003c/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany clubs begin with sixth as the real target. Getting there keeps them in the upper group for the run-in, brings five matches against the league's better sides and ends any lingering relegation worry.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe list may stretch to top three, top half or an exact position as well. Take the table seriously, of course, but glance at what remains.

A club ending 11th may survive through the play-off, while another market could be based only on the regular league position. The wording on the slip decides it.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLivingston went down after finishing last in 2025/26. Their replacement, St Johnstone, returned as Championship winners after only one year away.

Has the player kept penalty duties? Will he start every week? Could European football mean rotation, or might a January move take him out of the division?
