Derek McInnes’ side, whose lead over Rangers was reduced to a point at the weekend and are now just three clear of Celtic, entertain the Ibrox side on Monday, 4 May.<\/p>\n
Rangers’ final game of the league season is a third visit to Falkirk, who have one more home game than all the other clubs because of a fixture imbalance due to them being expected to have finished in the bottom half of the table.<\/p>\n
John McGlynn’s side will also host Hibs for a third time and travel to Celtic Park and Tynecastle for a third time.<\/p>\n
In that bottom half, where five teams could potentially face relegation, bottom of the table Livingston have one extra away game and one less at home.<\/p>\n
The final bottom-six fixtures are on Sunday, 17 May, when Dundee will host Aberdeen, Kilmarnock visit Livingston and St Mirren entertain Dundee United.<\/p>\n
After this weekend, the Premiership has a two-week hiatus for international fixtures and Scottish Cup semi-finals before resuming on 25 April, when Celtic entertain Falkirk in the top half, while Aberdeen host Kilmarnock and Livingston visit St Mirren.<\/p>\n
The following day, Rangers host Motherwell, while United host the final Dundee derby.<\/p>\n
The remaining fixtures will be staged over the weekends of 2 and 3 May, 9 and 10 May, the midweek of 12 and 13 May, with the top six finishing on 16 May and the bottom half the following day.<\/p>\n
When Hearts visit Celtic Park on the final day of the top half, it will be 28 years to the day since the Edinburgh side beat Rangers to lift the Scottish Cup at the same venue while the national stadium at Hampden Park was being renovated.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
