We have a couple of derby crackers coming up tomorrow.
Celtic host Rangers at 12:30, the two Dundee teams meeting at Tannadice at 15:00.
As ever, we'll have it all covered.
Thanks for your company today.
FT: Kilmarnock 1-1 Hibernian
Hibernian head coach David Gray tells BBC Scotland: "No, I don't think we've seen it coming [Kilmarnock's equaliser] in terms of how dominant I felt we were in the game, how good a performance we put in.
"But at this level, at any level, you have to go right to the very end of the game and Kilmarnock are always going to have periods within the game.
"I thought throughout it we stood up to that really well, created the best chances, and right now it probably feels like two points dropped.
"But it could still be a massive point as well moving forward because this is a real difficult place to come.
"The surface is difficult, it's tricky to play on, but I thought the players showed real bravery and confidence on the ball and I think we've reacted in a positive way to a negative weekend last week [Scottish Cup exit to Celtic].

FT: Motherwell 2-2 St Mirren
St Mirren manager Stephen Robinson tells BBC Scotland: "It was an opportunity wasted.
"Motherwell had two shots the whole game and scored both, had no corners, we didn't feel they were any threat whatsoever but managing the game has been a problem for us.
"We had other opportunities - even when down to 10 men - and didn't take them. It's two points dropped."
On Toyosi Olusanya's red card, Robinson says: "I'm a million miles away from that decision, it looked to me like two people colliding. It looked it was just a coming together of two people running at pace.
"We showed great character and were the better team even when down to 10 men, as we were all day."

FT: Motherwell 2-2 St Mirren
Motherwell manager Michael Wimmer tells BBC Scotland: "A draw is okay. The first 25-30 minutes, they had more energy and more power.
"The character was very good after going 2-0 down. In the end, we missed a chance to be more bold and create more chances.
"It was so tight and so tough, but we gave them a fight and were ready for the duels. The spectators saw 114 minutes of power football."

Aberdeen manager Jimmy Thelin tells BBC Scotland: "I think the result reflects the game.
"I thought both teams defended well and we missed a little bit of extra quality. I think the result is fair but we need to do more to deserve to win, create more chances to get a winning goal. Today was not enough.
"The opponent did their job well, defended well and so did we but it was not enough. We had a really big away support who pushed us but we have to do more.
"We have to take this point. We have a clean sheet, defensively we did well but we need to do more to get the three points. Hopefully it's going to be a good point when we sum up everything."

It will be interesting to see how Hearts evolve after another transfer window for Neil Critchley. There's a good squad there, but it's imbalanced and has been for a long time.
It wasn't convincing today but it's a victory and that's all that's important at this stage of the season. Top six is the be all and end all so they can challenge for third.
FT: Kilmarnock 1-1 Hibernian
Rory Loy
Former Dundee striker on BBC Sportsound
Hibs were the masters of their own downfall. They got into lots of good positions but decision-making or a poor touch let them down. If they had been more switched on in the second half they could have really punished Kilmarnock.
The Kilmarnock goal came out of nowhere and Derek McInnes will feel his team got away with one.
FT: St Johnstone 0-0 Aberdeen
St Johnstone manager Simo Valakari: "I think everyone saw it was a very tight game, not much between the teams.
"We had our chance in the first half, we defended against a very dangerous attacking force.
"It's a step forward. We have lost these matches earlier. If we cannot win it let's take the point and it's one point gained.
"We came here to win, we need to win but if we cannot win we take the point and you never know how valuable it will be at the end of the season."

The split is three games away for that quartet, with four points covering them.
No change in the race for third as Hibs and Aberdeen both draw on their travels.
A spot of deja vu for the Edinburgh side who gave away a late equaliser on their last visit to Rugby Park.
Dundee United will hope to profit tomorrow when they entertain neighbours Dundee.
A win for Jim Goodwin's men would lift them above the Dons and level with Hibs.
What a battle at Fir Park.
Four goals, a red card, and an injury time period stretching into double figures.
St Mirren raced into a 2-0 lead when Caolan Boyd-Munce and Killian Phillips netted from the edge of the box.
Callum Slattery quickly pulled one back for Motherwell, before his second levelled things up on 71 minutes,.
Boyd-Munce was stretchered off after a serious injury, and Toyosi Olusanya was shown a second yellow card after clattering Dan Casey late on.
Motherwell slip out of the top six, but maintain their three-point buffer above St Mirren.

Ooft! That was a good chance for St Mirren but Alex Gogic can't keep his header from a corner down.

A free-kick for St Mirren in a promising position. The stadium is hushed briefly but it's a terrible effort from Oisin Smyth.

It ends all square at McDiarmid Park which, over the 90 minutes, is probably a fair result.
A point suits the Saints more than the Dons as they move within two of Dundee at the bottom of the table before their massive derby tomorrow.
Aberdeen fail to make ground on Hibs and can be overtaken by Dundee United if they emerge victorious at Tannadice.

St Johnstone and Aberdeen were both left to rue a missed opportunity as they fought out a tousy goalless Scottish Premiership draw at McDiarmid Park.
The point moves the Perth side within two of second-bottom Dundee, when a win might have moved them off the bottom of the league.
While Aberdeen did not lose any ground on Hibernian in the race for third, they were unable to take advantage of the Edinburgh side dropping points at Kilmarnock and stay a point back.
It is usually pretty tight when these teams meet and, with both taking decent recent form into this edition of the fixture, another close encounter was expected.
And that is exactly what transpired in a first half which was full of energy but not many goalscoring opportunities.
St Johnstone should have taken the lead early on when Makenzie Kirk was one on one with Dimitar Mitov, but the goalkeeper produced a fine save to tip the striker's shot wide.
The division's bottom side had another good chance as the interval approached, when Adama Sidibeh had an effort blocked.
Aberdeen had a couple of Kevin Nisbet shots easily gathered by Andy Fisher in a frustrating opening 45 minutes.
And manager Jimmy Thelin will have no doubt called for more from his side at half time and they went close just after the restart with Oday Dabbagh heading wide.
Substitute Victor Griffith did the same for St Johnstone on the hour.
The theme of going close with headers continued in a scrappy second half - this time it was Aberdeen defender Mats Knoester's turn.
And that was the sum of things in what was a disappointing encounter in Perth.
When you are battling for your life at the bottom of the league, every point is a prisoner. So this will be gratefully grasped and tucked away for safety.
One is, of course, better than none but, while it sounds greedy, St Johnstone could have done with all three.
Depending on what happens in Sunday's Dundee derby, the Perth side could end the weekend well adrift at the foot of the table.
Of course they might not – but it serves to highlight the perilous situation they find themselves in.
Simo Valakari's team are in a predicament which is about fine lines and what happened against Aberdeen serves to reinforce that point.
His team have now lost just two of their last seven league games but it is wins that will prove priceless over the coming weeks as they continue in their bid to survive.
This point in Perth doesn't feel like a good one for Aberdeen.
Of course there is the positive way of looking at it – it is better than nothing and it means they have now lost just one of their last seven games in all competitions.
But given the tightness of the race for European places - and even for a spot in the top six - there is little margin for error and points can ill afford to be spilled.
A win would have left Jimmy Thelin's side in a really strong position, but the draw leaves them knowing they very much have a lot of work still to do.
That's not to say they can't do it, and there have been signs of late that Aberdeen have turned a corner. However it is wins, not draws, that will take them to where they want to be come the end of the campaign.
St Johnstone manager Simo Valakari: "It was a very tight game. We had our chance in the first half, we defended against a very dangerous attacking force.
"It's a step forward. We have lost these matches earlier. If we cannot win it let's take the point and it's one point gained. You never know how valuable it will be.
"We looked solid and that's the foundation for the survival fight. We will create, we will do the things but we have to be solid."
Aberdeen manager Jimmy Thelin: "The result is fair but we need to do more to deserve to win, create more chances to get a winning goal. Today was not enough.
"The opponent did their job well, defended well and so did we but it was not enough. We had a really big away support who pushed us but we have to do more.
"Defensively we did well but we need to do more to get the three points. Hopefully it's going to be a good point when we sum up everything."

St. Johnstone have only won once in their last nine league meetings with Aberdeen (D3 L5), a 2-0 away win in February 2024.
Aberdeen have suffered just one defeat in their last 15 league visits to St. Johnstone (W9 D5), a 0-1 loss in May 2022 under Jim Goodwin.
St. Johnstone have won two of their last three home league games (L1), as many as their previous 20 beforehand (W2 D5 L13), while the Saints are looking to earn successive home wins in the Scottish Premiership for the first time since December 2023.
Aberdeen have lost six of their last seven away league outings (W1), failing to score in five of those matches.
Kevin Nisbet has been directly involved in five goals in his last four league matches for Aberdeen (3 goals, 2 assists). However, Nisbet has just one goal in seven previous Scottish Premiership appearances against St. Johnstone, only netting fewer against Hibernian among all sides he has faced in the division (0 goals in 3 games).
