Unbeaten in the league, both sides have won nine of their first 10 games and have only dropped points once - when they faced each other in a pulsating 2-2 draw at Celtic Park last month. Rangers, who trail in third, are having a nightmare start.
The two top aren’t the only teams to have impressed this term, though. Both Dundee United and Motherwell has shaken up the top six of the division, while Kilmarnock have made a resurgence in recent weeks after a difficult start to the campaign.
But which individuals make up the Scottish Premiership Team of the Season so far, based on their early season performance?
Here is a look at the Scottish Premiership Team of the Season so far, based on FotMob player ratings.
1. GK: Aston Oxborough - Motherwell
Narrowly edging out both Kasper Schmeichel and Dimitar Mitov, the Fir Park stopper has a 7.50 rating for the season. He has one of the best save percentages in the league at 75.5% and has prevented 5.41 goals this season. | SNS Group
2. RB: Alistair Johnston - Celtic
The Canadian goal-machine is comfortably out performing other full-backs in the league. He has a 7.92 rating for the season after scoring four goals, assisting two, creating 20 chances for his team and scoring a 86.9% passing accuracy rate. Outstanding. | SNS Group
3. CB: Liam Scales - Celtic
The Irishman has been so strong for the Celts this season and is the league's top rated centre-back with a 7.78 ranking for the campaign. Has won 76.0% of his aerial duels (which is 97% more than any other centre-back) and made 45 recoveries. | SNS Group
4. CB: Auston Trusty - Celtic
Interestingly, it is deadline-day signing Auston Trusty that takes the other centre-back slot, ahead of team-mate Cameron Carter-Vickers. The American has a 7.56 rating for the campaign, mainly due to his 94.6% passing accuracy and 62.9% aerial duels win rate. | SNS Group
