Pape Habib Gueye
It's a Pape Habib Gueye day!
Kilmarnock just can't handle the big striker, who rises to meet Jamie McGrath's corner and flicks in his second headed goal of the day.
The points are surely staying at Pittodrie as you don't see a way back for the 10-man visitors now.

Yutaro Oda
There is that lifeline!
Lawrence Shankland wriggles free in the box and lays off to Yutaro Oda, who delays and then fires low into the bottom corner.
Game on.

Motherwell 2-0 Hearts
Huge chance for Hearts to give themselves a lifeline but it's a brilliant block to deny them.
A cross was pulled back to Lawrence Shankland, who pulled the trigger from 10 yards out but Ewan Wilson leapt to block at close range.

Tyrone Smith
BBC Sport Scotland at PittodrieA huge miss by Ester Sokler - with the goal at his mercy he fires over from a few yards out.
A certain Mr Bojan Miovski would have buried that.
A chance to kill the game missed - and a bit of a lifeline for Kilmarnock.

What a miss!
Flying wing-back Jack MacKenzie finds Ester Sokler with a fine low cross, but the unmarked striker blasts over the crossbar from 12 yards with the goal at his mercy.

It's just not going Hearts' way today.

BBC Sport Scotland at PittodrieIt looked a long road back for Kilmarnock anyway - but it has got even longer after that red card for Brad Lyons.
But at just the goal behind, they are still in this game.

Aberdeen 1-0 Kilmarnock
Killie boss Derek McInnes responds to the red card for captain Brad Lyons by making a swift change.
Rory McKenzie takes the armband as he replaces Danny Armstrong, with the winger looking a shadow of the player who was such a menace to opposition defences last season.

Stephen O'Donnell
Another set piece, another goal!
Lennon Miller's delivery is fantastic. It's another ball to the back post and Stephen O'Donnell holds off Kye Rowles to power a header in.
Hearts look very, very uncertain at the back.

Former Aberdeen captain on BBC SportsoundI've got no doubt in my mind that Brad Lyons deserved that red card.

A VAR check at Pittodrie after Brad Lyons' diving challenge into Dons striker Ester Sokler. Lyons was booked but it could be upgraded to a red.

Motherwell 1-0 Hearts
Steven Naismith is readying three Hearts changes. It's surprising they didn't come sooner.
Cammy Devlin, Kenneth Vargas and Yutaro Oda are on. Yan Dhanda, Alan Forrest and Gerald Taylor are all hooked.

Tony Watt is just on and he's laced one at goal that Craig Gordon has to save.
Motherwell knocking on the door for another.

Aberdeen 1-0 Kilmarnock
Kilmarnock come out the traps, no doubt on the back of a Derek McInnes tongue lashing, and winger Danny Armstrong has a shot blocked before a dangerous cross that is well held by goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov.

BBC Sport Scotland at PittodrieA very lively start to the second half by Kilmarnock.
The have shown more threat and intent in the opening few minutes than they did in the whole of the first half.

Motherwell 1-0 Hearts
Hearts are really struggling to keep a foot on the ball, while passes in the final third seem to be an impossible task.
Motherwell though, have started the second half with the intensity of the first. The difference in confidence levels is astounding.
