 Rangers v Glasgow City: How to watch the SWPL title decider on TV and live stream

The Scottish Women's Premier League title race comes to a head on Sunday as Rangers host Glasgow City at Ibrox.

The two sides are level on points at the top of the table, with Rangers holding a slight goal difference advantage.

A win for either side would see them crowned champions, while a draw would mean the title will be decided on goal difference.

The match will be broadcast live on BBC Alba in Scotland and on the BBC Sport website and app in the UK.

Kick-off is at 4:10pm BST.

They are unbeaten in their last 11 league matches and have scored 34 goals in that time.
