Odds on Rangers completing a domestic treble have been slashed after their Viaplay Cup triumph yesterday.
Bookmakers have halved the odds on the Ibrox side delivering a first treble in over 20 years this season following the club's 1-0 win over Aberdeen at Hampden on Sunday afternoon.
Philippe Clement has only been in the job for a little over two months, but the Belgian has succeeded in achieving silverware at the first time of asking.
As well as tasting success at the national stadium - and in the Europa League by topping their group - Rangers are very much in a title race with Celtic.
Brendan Rodgers' side lead the way by five points at the summit of the Premiership, however, two successive league defeats at the hands of Kilmarnock and Hearts have blown the race wide open.
Clement's team has two games in hand over their arch-rivals, with the first of those this Wednesday at home to St Johnstone, with the Old Firm derby on the horizon too.
As a result, their odds of winning a domestic treble this campaign have been heavily reduced.
A few weeks ago they were priced at 10/1 to rack up all three trophies, however, this morning, that has been halved down to 5/1 with instantcasinos.com.

Shane Roarty from instantcasinos.com said: "The feel-good factor has returned to Ibrox and with good reason. It's evident that Rangers have a manager who not only has a clear plan in mind, but he also means business.
"This is shaping up to be the most exciting second half to a season that Scottish football has seen in many years."
Any incredibly optimistic Gers fans who believe their team could go all the way in the Europa League too can get odds at 150/1 on a quadruple.
