"Falkirk have upset the Scottish Premiership applecart this season, finishing in the top six and remaining in contention for European qualification on two fronts."
"After 33 league games, leaders Hearts, Rangers, Motherwell and Falkirk will have played 17 home games in the division and 16 away."
"Given the need to even out home and away derbies and the stakes in the title race, it is likely two of Hearts' away games will be at Hibs' Easter Road and Celtic Park."
"Celtic will have a home meeting with either Hibs, Falkirk or Motherwell - three sides who will have already visited Celtic Park twice this season."
Falkirk's impressive performance in the Scottish Premiership has led to their unexpected placement in the top six, raising questions for league organizers. Following their victory over Motherwell, they remain in contention for European qualification. The league's structure involves a split after 33 rounds, with the top six and bottom six teams playing each other again. The distribution of home and away games for the top teams complicates fixture planning, particularly for Hearts, Celtic, and Hibs, as they navigate potential third visits from certain teams.
