Rangers, Celtic and Hearts are all in the quest to clinch the Scottish Premiership title come the end of May.
Hearts will go into the split as the league leaders as they sit atop the SPFL table with 71 points.
The Ibrox outfit can go second if they beat Falkirk on Sunday, and control their own destiny in the title race, but may have to beat both Celtic and Hearts.
SPFL consider play-off between Rangers and Celtic in case everything is level
An SPFL source told the Daily Record that they are prepared to have a play-off between Rangers and Celtic to decide the title.
Goal difference separates things if two teams are level on points, after which goals scored and head-to-head results are considered.
However, there is a possibility that everything is equal between the Ibrox outfit and their cross-town rivals.A 3-1 win for Celtic at Parkhead post the split can lead to the possibility of all things being the same between the Old Firm sides.If this happens, it would be the first time since 2003 that the title is decided by a play-off.
That game was at Hampden and Mikel Arteta’s penalty saw the Gers beat the Hoops to the title.
Speaking about this potential obstacle, an SPFL source confirmed: “Absolutely. The league has prepared for a similar eventuality in the past.”What Danny Rohl will be working on in the coming weeks
Rohl knows that this battle is psychological as much as it is in correspondence to the work put in on the training ground.
He knows the quality of his players after working with them for months and it is now his job to bring out the fighting spirit in them.
When the chips are down, the German needs his players to rally around each other and give their 100 per cent on the pitch.
This means putting in the extra yards behind the ball, getting stuck into challenges they would have previously avoided and leaving their heart and soul on the pitch.
Over the next few weeks, Rohl is very likely to ingrain this mentality into his players and it remains to be seen if it is enough to guide them over the line.
