Scotland: Iheanacho targets league title in Hearts showdown

Kelechi Iheanacho will be looking to win the Scottish Premiership title when Celtic host Hearts at the Paradise on Saturday (today).

Iheanacho scored a dramatic late equaliser in Celtic’s victory at Motherwell on Wednesday to put the Hoops in contention to win the title again.

The Nigerian international also scored winning goals in recent outings against Dundee and Hibernian.

Hearts enjoy a one-point lead over Celtic in the league table.

A draw will be enough for the hosts to end their 66-year wait for the title, while Celtic must win to retain the league crown.

Iheanacho has netted eight times in 22 appearances across all competitions for the Hoops this season.
