Motherwell boss Stuart Kettlewell reckons Rangers and Celtic are driving each other to their relentless form in the Scottish Premiership this season.

But he insists clubs should relish the chance to be the ones who can put an end to their incredible runs in the top flight. The Steelmen welcome Michael Beale's Rangers to Fir Park on Saturday with the Ibrox club yet to lose in 13 league games under the new boss, who replaced Gio van Bronckhorst in November.

The only time Rangers haven't managed a Premiership win in that period was in a 2-2 draw with their greatest rivals in January.

Across Glasgow, Celtic are on an even better run with 20 wins from their last 21 games helping them to a nine-point lead over Rangers at the top of the table.
