It is the earliest Scottish title win in chronological terms. Rangers have dropped just eight points in an unbeaten league campaign so far, with their victory on Saturday their 28th win in 32 matches.

Rangers' first game as champions will be the third Old Firm game of the campaign at Celtic Park on March 21.
