Hibs goalkeeper Jordan Smith launches the ball straight over the St Mirren defence for Martin Boyle to chase, but opposite number Shamal George is alive to the danger.

That's not the first time he's done it. It's as counter-attacking as it gets.

Aberdeen have just introduced their new signing from AC Milan , striker Marko Lazetic, off the bench.

It will be interesting to see if he can provide the cutting edge that they have been lacking so far this season.

Dante Polvara is the man to make way.

It's another chance for Falkirk as midfielder Brad Spencer fires one from outside of the box into the hands of goalkeeper Dimitar Mitov.

Two more changes for the hosts.

Graeme Shinnie replaces Ante Palaversa and Adil Aouchiche comes on for Nicolas Milanovic, who had a strong first half.

Probably need to freshen up the side given they are down to 10 men on top of their European exploits in midweek.

Early controversy in the second half at Easter Road.

The ball pinballs around from a long throw with Hibs' boots trying to direct it goalward. It breaks free and Rocky Bushiri goes after it before throwing himself down.

It's a dreadful dive from the centre-half, but he somehow avoids a booking. Incurs the wrath of the St Mirren defenders though.

First big chance of the half for Falkirk as Dylan Tait has an effort saved at stretch from Dimitar Mitov after fine passes on the left from Ross MacIver and Scott Arfield.

We're also under way at Easter Road.

Will either side break the deadlock?

Dons boss Jimmy Thelin has made a change, with defender Gavin Molloy replacing striker Kusini Yengi.

No doubt a change of shape to compensate for the loss of Nicky Devlin in defence to that red card.

We're off again.

With both teams seeking their first Premiership win of the season, will it be glory for 10-man Aberdeen, or will it be John McGlynn's side who secure a first win on their return to the top flight?

There has been no sign of fatigue from Hibs in the first half after their European adventures, with both teams cancelling each other out.

But, other than some magic from Martin Boyle that set up Junior Hoilett and a decent save by Jordan Smith from Jonah Ayunga, it's not been a great 45 minutes.

There is plenty of talent on both benches, though, that hopefully can bring some excitement to the game in the second period. Fingers crossed!

Derby day belongs to Dundee United after a dominant display from Jim Goodwin's side at Dens Park.

Goals from Zach Sapsford and Ivan Dolcek mean the Tangerines cruise to three points and earn their first league win of the season.

Panutche Camara slips the ball through to Ivan Dolcek, who goes haring into the box with a chance to make it three, but it's cleared for a corner.

Goalless at the break at Easter Road, but it's a far different game to the 0-0 draw we were served up at Ibrox by the Old Firm.

Both teams have played relatively well, with real intensity and graft.

Hibs have been direct in their approach, trying to bypass the combative St Mirren midfield. They've had the better chances too. Junior Hoilett rattled the bar and Rocky Bushiri glanced wide when he should have scored.

However, this could go either way.

A goalless first half at Pittrodie, but not for the lack of trying.

Both teams have had some solid attempts at an opener, but no luck so far.

Nicolas Milanovic and Kusini Yengi have looked strong for Aberdeen, while Brad Spencer and Scott Arfield have looked the most dangerous for the visitors.

Of course, Nicky Devlin's red card just before the break has the hosts on the back foot.

In terms of chances created, Aberdeen have had the better of things at Pittodrie.

But that red card for Nicky Devlin will have Falkirk believing they can emerge from the Granite City with a positive result.

The usually calm Aberdeen manager, Jimmy Thelin, was so incensed by the red card that he was received a yellow card from referee Ross Hardie.

Into six minutes of added time at Dens.

It's becoming an aggressive game for both sides and Falkirk defender Leon McCann goes in the book.

Some late substitutions for both sides.

A triple change for Dundee - Imari Samuels, Drey Wright and Callum Jones off for Billy Koumetio, Finlay Robertson and Emile Acquah.

Zach Sapsford's off for Dario Naamo and Luca Stephenson's off for Julius Eskesen.

Aberdeen now down to 10 men after Nicky Devlin is shown a red card for a foul on Falkirk's Calvin Miller.

The defender is initially shown the yellow card for a bad foul, but following a VAR check, referee Ross Hardie upgrades it.

Coming two minutes before the break, it'll be uphill from here for the home side.

The United fans are absolutely bouncing after that second goal!

Just over five minutes to play. Are we in for any late derby drama?

Certainly doesn't look like it and plenty of home fans are already leaving.
