Celtic host Hearts in the Scottish Premiership this afternoon.
Brendan Rodgers' side are three points ahead of Rangers after the first post-split matchday.
And he'll be aiming to extend that gap to six points - overnight at least - as Celtic face Hearts at Parkhead on Saturday. Rangers don't play until Sunday at 1pm against Kilmarnock.
For Rodgers, there will be the added incentive of going for victory against Hearts having lost to the Tynecastle club on the last two meetings.

Celtic had won 4-1 away in Edinburgh against Hearts in October but have since suffered two losses to Steven Naismith's side.
The first, a 2-0 defeat at Celtic Park in December before Hearts again triumphed over the league leaders at Tynecastle on March 3 with the same scoreline.
Hearts have all but sealed third in the Scottish Premiership with an 11-point lead over Kilmarnock in fourth - who they drew with last weekend - with just four matches left.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
