There are six Games left until the end of the season, including the Scottish Cup final on May 25.

Currently leading the Premiership by a narrow margin of three points over rivals Rangers, Celtic’s resolve will be tested in the remaining five league matches.

The tension will crescendo on May 11, when Celtic hosts Rangers in a derby that could potentially decide the league’s fate. As things stand, Celtic could all but win the league that day, pushing them six points clear with six to play for.

“We’re looking no further forward than Dundee,” the Hoops boss told Celtic TV. “That’s a big Game for us, like everyone will be now in these six Games to finish, both in the league and the cup final.

“I’m really excited about this challenge of finishing the season with a success. But it’s about taking each Game at a time, keeping the focus on Dundee, not looking anywhere else other than where we can exploit Dundee and use our strengths to win the Game.”

The season is all but over, with the league title still in the balance. Although Celtic are in the driving seat, any slip-up brings Rangers right back into it.

After Dundee, Celtic host Hearts before the Glasgow Derby, then follows a trip to Kilmarnock to finish off with a home match v St Mirren.
