We've got a VAR check. St Mirren defender Shaun Rooney's shot is blocked by defender Joe Wright's arm and it definitely hits the arm...

And referee Matthew MacDermid gives it.

The home crowd are starting to become a bit nervous as the visitors are looking very comfortable in defence and dangerous on the counter attack.

That's better from Hibs as Mykola Kuharevich drives forward and has a shot blocked.

From the resulting corner, Chris Cadden curls a shot that Saints deal with.

Both sides need a lot more in the final third.

St Mirren 1-1 Kilmarnock

Now Shaun Rooney might be a lucky boy.

The St Mirren defender tussles with Kyle Vassell, who falls to the floor.

Rooney boots the striker on the floor twice as he "attempts" to get the ball. Nothing given either.

A fine save from Craig Gordon as the Hearts goalkeeper gets down to block Kyogo Furuhashi's close-range effort, but the Celtic striker was offside.

An Andy Halliday corner falls perfectly for Lennon Miller, but the Well midfielder totally fluffs what looks like a real chance.

He's so much better than that.

Another Kilmarnock corner is almost curled directly into the net.

Winger Danny Armstrong tries to catch goalkeeper Ellery Balcombe out and ends up curling the ball off the face of the bar.

Referee Colin Steven reverses his decision and Hearts are feeling hard done-by.

The pundits in the studio think justice was done considering Lawrence Shankland's header hit Liam Scales' arm at close range.

Dundee think they are level through former County striker Simon Murray, but it's rightly ruled out for offside.

Murray is a good two yards behind the backline when he receives the initial line-splitting ball forward, which led to him curling in a sweet finish that does not stand.

Referee Colin Steven has been persuaded to have another look at this penalty award.

Matty Kennedy twists and turns and goes down under the challenge of Shaun Rooney. The Kilmarnock winger half-heartedly appeals for a penalty, but referee Matthew MacDermid isn't interested.

The St Mirren full-back is struggling to deal with Kennedy this afternoon.

Chance for Hearts at a free-kick. Jorge Grant's delivery from the left is flicked away and headed at goal, but Lawrence Shankland's header is turned wide by goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.

From the corner, Shankland's header comes off Liam Scales' hand and referee Colin Steven says penalty. VAR will check of course.

What a goal that was - Pape Habib Gueye picked up the ball in his own half and ran the whole way up the park, turning Stephen O'Donnell in knots on his way - and what a finish.

Pape's celebratory dance in front of the Red Shed was the icing on the cake.

St Johnstone have been the better side in a tight first half so far at Easter Road.

Matt Smith gets a sight of goal on the edge of the box, but the midfielder fires it wide.

Kwon Hyeok-kyu does the same for Hibs up the other end.

Dundee are dominating possession, winning the majority of both aerial and ground battles - and are completing far more accurate passes than their hosts.

But they have zero shots to show for it after 28 minutes played.

County remain quite content with their early lead and are defending it well.

Steven Naismith has been fairly chatty with the fourth official Euan Anderson this afternoon.

I'm not sure if the Hearts head coach has a specific gripe or is just seeking some clarity on one or two decisions that have gone against his side.

Motherwell, with just 27% possession, are struggling to get any sustained time on the ball.

They're winning it back relatively well, but there are too many hopeful passes.

Almost a first Celtic goal for Arne Engels.

The record midfield signing controls well off Nicolas Kuhn's pass inside the box and volleys on to the right-hand post.
