YELLOW CARDpublished at 16:31 British Summer Time
Ross County 1-1 Kilmarnock
Noah Chilvers blasts at goal from outside the box and a solid header from Joe Wright stops the ball from flying towards the net.
Chilvers has had four or five shots in this game. He's desperate for a first County goal.
Meanwhile, Connor Randall is into the book for arriving slightly late to a 50-50 tackle with David Watson.

Simon Murray drags an effort from the edge of the box wide as Dundee try to jolt themselves to life.
Tony Docherty makes three substitutions as Scott Tiffoney, Oluwaesun Adewumi, and Seb Palmer-Houlden are all on now.

Ross County 1-1 Kilmarnock
Kilmarnock are forced into a slightly more defensive change. Captain Kyle Vassell is replaced by midfielder David Watson.
That said, the youngster is capable of a stunning strike, so don't rule out a Killie goal.

GOAL Dundee 1-1 St Johnstonepublished at 16:24 British Summer Time
Graham Carey
It's a Carey classic.
The Irishman jinks in from the right-hand side and shifts the ball on to his left foot before bending it into the far corner.
Dundee goalkeeper Trevor Carson is flailing a bit, he probably could have done better. St Johnstone deserve that goal, though.

Ross County 1-1 Kilmarnock
Brad Lyons is into the book now, as Killie concede a free-kick on the edge of the Killie box. Noah Chilvers is over it... and he curls it just over the bar.
County now firmly in the driving seat and they replace defender Ryan Leak with striker Alex Samuel. That's an attacking roll of the dice from Don Cowie.
GOAL Ross County 1-1 Kilmarnockpublished at 16:19 British Summer Time
Jordan White
It's gone from bad to worse in a matter of seconds for Kilmarnock!
Noah Chilvers clips in the free-kick after Liam Donnelly's red, Kacper Lopata nods it back across goal, Akil Wright has a shot blocked and then Jordan White hooks it in from close range.
An unbelievable Killie collapse in the space of 60 seconds.
RED CARD Liam Donnelly (Kilmarnockpublished at 16:19 British Summer Time
Ross County 0-1 Kilmarnock
Liam Donnelly is booked for the second time today and that means a red card for the midfielder. The first caution was for needlessly kicking the ball out and his second followed a cynical foul.
That's Kilmarnock's sixth red card of the season.
RED CARD Liam Dick (Raith Rovers)published at 16:16 British Summer Time
Livingston 0-1 Raith Rovers
Raith Rovers are down to 10 players after Liam Dick receives a second booking.
GOAL Falkirk 2-0 Dunfermline Athleticpublished at 16:14 British Summer Time
Calvin Miller
Calvin Miller's shot doubles Scottish Championship leaders Falkirk's advantage.

Dundee 1-0 St Johnstone
St Johnstone midfielder Jason Holt drives a shot wide of the target from 20 yards. Dundee have been asleep for most of this game, but still lead.

Ross County 0-1 Kilmarnock
There's also been a change for Kilmarnock at half-time, and I can only assume it was enforced.
Stuart Findlay was replaced by Joe Wright, who returns from suspension.
CLOSE!published at 16:12 British Summer Time
Dundee 1-0 St Johnstone
St Johnstone have started this second half with far more zest and should be level!
Matt Smith hangs the ball to the back post and finds Benjamin Kimpioka, whose header is clawed away by Trevor Carson.
It comes back in and Clark Robertson makes a brilliant block to prevent Nicky Clark from scoring, and then Matthew Smith loops a header just wide.
That's about as much action as we had in the entire first half.
Old rivals, new ambitionspublished at 16:07 British Summer Time
Aberdeen v Dundee United (17:30)
It's a sell-out at Pittodrie as Aberdeen seek to go three points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership.
In a throwback to Dons-United meetings of old and Dundee United arrive in the Granite City hoping to move above Rangers into third place.
