Solid defending needed from Aberdeen to keep out Hearts as Monica Forsyth is closed down by three red shirts before her shot is saved by Annalisa McCann.

Into the closing stages at Meadowbank, things still level.

Another solid save from Alicia Yates denies City a sixth!

Darcie Miller goes on a cracking solo run and wins an Aberdeen free-kick about 30 yards from the Hearts goal.

The bending delivery is easily headed clear by the visitors though.

Aberdeen almost pull one back! It's a great clearance off the line from Lizzie Waldie to deny Emily Kraft.

Hibs have a chance to regain the lead with a free-kick in a dangerous area.

Poppy Lawson takes but sends her curling effort wide.

Eilidh Shore is denied Hearts' third by the crossbar! It's a pretty optimistic effort from the midfielder who hits the top of the bar with her long-range shot.

Hayley Lauder and Nicole Kozlova are replaced by Brenna Lovera and Maddie Fulton for the final half hour or so.

Spartans have the opportunity to pull one back with a free-kick just outside the City box.

Hannah Jordan lofts it goalwards but can't hit the target.

It's saved by Alicia Yates! It wasn't the best spot kick from Lisa Forrest and the Spartans keeper reacts well to keep out the penalty and keep Spartans in the game.

A chance to make it three!

And finally, Hearts get things restarted at Balmoral.

And Meadowbank.

Back under way at Petershill!

Title challengers Rangers host relegation-threatened Dundee United on Sunday afternoon in a game shaping up as a stark case of have v have-not.

The last time these sides met in the league Rangers were 10-0 winners and after losing the title on goal difference last year, Potter's side will be going for it once again.

Rangers are flying at the top end of the table, just a point behind league leaders Glasgow City but with a far superior goal difference.

Having just beaten Celtic to open up a four-point gap between the Old Firm rivals, Potter's team have scored 70 goals in the league this season and conceded just nine.

United, in contrast, are already staring at the real possibility of relegation. Due to the restructuring of the top flight, three teams will go down at the end of the season without any last-ditch lifeline of a play-off.

After 13 games, Suzy Shepherd's part-time side have picked up just one point and sit rock bottom of the SWPL, 10 points from safety.

United survived a relegation play-off last season, defeating Kilmarnock to retain their place in the top flight, but the chance of a great escape is looking slimmer by the day.

They've scored just seven goals, the lowest in the top flight, and have conceded 73, the highest in the division.

Things don't get any easier. After Rangers, they face Hibs before a trip to fellow strugglers Queen's Park which is looking like a must win for United.

Then their final game before the Christmas break is a visit to Glasgow City.
