It cant be. In 8 of the 9 possible finishing scenarios there is a clear points winner. In the scenario where they both end up with the same points Celtic will win because they will have a better goal difference.
Rangers will will win in 7 of the 9 possible outcomes, Celtic in only 2. Celtic's ONLY chance of winning the SPL is if they win against Hearts in their last game.
Rangers must also win their last game to ENSURE the title, but if they don't win their last game they still have a chance of winning the title if Celtic also don't win THEIR last game.
It is indeed going to be nerve wracking.
Oh and...Celtic's last game is at home while Rangers' is away.
To sumarize:-
Rangers win their last game, so win the SPL, no matter what the result of the Celtic match is.
Rangers draw or lose their last match, so win the SPL, as long as Celtic DO NOT win their last match.
Celtic win their last match. so win the SPL ONLY if Rangers draw or lose their last match.
Even the summary is a bit torturous.
