Rangers' progress toward a second straight Scottish Premier League title was temporarily held up Wednesday by a 0-0 draw at Dundee United.

Victory would have meant Rangers needed only to beat Hearts at Ibrox on Sunday to secure the championship, but it now needs second-place Celtic to drop points against Hibernian on Saturday or it will have to wait another week.

Third-place Dundee United secured a point at Tannadice despite defender Mihael Kovacevic being sent off for kicking Kyle Lafferty in the 70th minute.

Rangers has 77 points to Celtic's 66. Dundee United has 59.
