It is the title race the world is watching and it all comes down to one final showdown, live on Sky Sports.
If Hearts avoid defeat at Celtic Park, they will be crowned Scottish Premiership champions for the first time since 1960. However, the Hoops know a win at home will see them successfully defend the title.
Hearts have led the way virtually all season, and can take confidence into Saturday's decider in the knowledge that they have not lost to Celtic this campaign.
But Celtic, with Martin O'Neill having returned twice this season to steady the ship, have dragged themselves right back into title contention.
Since losing to Dundee United at Tannadice Park in March, they have won seven in a row in all competitions, with six in the league cutting Hearts' lead at the top to a solitary point.
Do not expect a straightforward afternoon in the East End of Glasgow.
Saturday's title decider didn't need any ramping up. However, it got it.
For 10 minutes on Wednesday night, the Jambos were in dreamland as they led Falkirk, while Celtic trailed at Motherwell. Hearts' lead was set to be three points going into Saturday, plus they would have had a better goal difference of six.
