Brendan Rodgers’ table-toppers have played just seven games, one fewer than their top-flight rivals, but are already four points clear.

And Dalglish reckons no-one will catch his former club as they stroll to six-in-a-row.

The Hoops have already seen off last season’s runners-up Aberdeen with a convincing 4-0 win, and thrashed Old Firm rivals Rangers 5-1.

Dalglish reckons taking the Hoops back to the Champions League group stage was Rodgers’ toughest challenge – and he passed it.

“The richest clubs don’t always win but you can almost give Celtic the championship now for this season,” said Dalglish.

“Without being complacent, it’s over. They beat Rangers 5-1, they’ve beaten Aberdeen as well.

“They are going to win the league, no doubt.

“Brendan was up against it because they’re expected to win the league and the two cups.
