Nisbet rolls in 98th-minute winner to give Aberdeen ninth win in ninth and put them top of Premiership
Hale & Rubezic efforts both disallowed for offside after VAR checks
Motherwell strike late at St Johnstone; Dundee & St Mirren share four goals
Falkirk, Thistle & Livingston win in Championship
Curtis Main
This is a belter of a game!
Richard Taylor should have learned from Antonio Portales' error up the other end.
The St Mirren defender lets the ball bounce over his head and Curtis Main is in to bury a delightful finish.
Game on.
St Johnstone 0-1 Motherwell
Andy Halliday has been denied an absolute beauty by the offside flag.
Tawanda Maswanhise was narrowly in front of the last St Johnstone defender as he squared for Halliday on the edge of the box.
It was an epic finish from Halliday, too - a first-time curler into the top bin with his trusty left foot.
Jack Baird
Ali Crawford swings in a superb free-kick and Jack Baird is on hand at the back post to double Morton's lead.
Toyosi Olusanya
Superb play from Toyosi Olusanya, but it's awful defending from Antonio Portales.
The Dundee centre-back lets it bounce and in comes the St Mirren striker to nick it with his head, drive into the box and finish from a tight angle.
You can't take your eyes off him.
Dundee 0-0 St Mirren
Sustained pressure from Dundee.
The move ends with Mo Sylla drilling one low, which Curtis Main helps on but it's just wide.
St Johnstone 0-1 Motherwell
Incredible stop from Aston Oxborough to keep Motherwell ahead!
Benjamin Kimpioka finds space deep inside the away box. He opens up his body and tries to bend beyond the goalkeeper, but Oxborough leaps to his left to make a brilliant save.
There may have been a foul from Aaron Essel in the build-up in any case.
Dundee 0-0 St Mirren
That's naughty from Shaun Rooney.
He intentionally makes contact with Jon McCracken, who is high in the air collecting the ball.
It causes the Dundee keeper to almost do a somersault and the pair have words after it.
In comes the referee to give Rooney a yellow.
Dylan Watret
Dunfermline's lead doesn't last long, as Dylan Watret finds the bottom corner for league leaders Ayr United.
Morgan Boyes
St Johnstone 0-1 Motherwell
Motherwell continue to threaten, exciting winger Tawanda Maswanhise zips in from the left and drives low past the far post.
St Johnstone 0-1 Motherwell
Jane Lewis
BBC Scotland reporter at McDiarmid Park
Craig Levein won't be happy with his goalkeeper for that Motherwell goal.
Ross Sinclair was given his chance today after Josh Rae was dropped for making some costly mistakes, but could only flap at Andy Halliday's ball into the box.
Image source, SNSDundee 0-0 St Mirren
Toyosi Olusanya nips behind and forces Jon McCracken into a smart stop.
Don't think it would have counted, though, and I'm not really sure why.
Ewan Otoo
Ewan Otoo smashes Dunfermline in front from about 30 yards out.
A screamer that finds the back of the net via the crossbar.
Dan Casey
Moments after being denied a penalty, Motherwell take the lead - but it's a horror show at the back for St Johnstone.
Goalkeeper Ross Sinclair, making his first appearance in over a year, can't deal with a devilish Andy Halliday corner.
Dan Casey rises in front of the stopper, and glances a header into the home net.
Dundee 0-0 St Mirren
Tyrone Smith
BBC Sport Scotland at Dens Park
A very lively start at Dens Park - end to end in the opening minutes.
Hopefully the full game follows this pattern.
Harry Milne
Harry Milne heads Partick Thistle in front at Firhill from a Kyle Turner corner.
St Johnstone 0-0 Motherwell
There's clear contact from Essels on the left leg of McGinn, but it's fiendishly tough for the officials to discern whether it's inside or outside the box.
Iain Snedden takes his time over the replays... then waves for play to continue.
Dundee 0-0 St Mirren
More good combination play between strikers but it's up the other end this time.
Toyosi Olusanya flicks on for Mikael Mandron, who can't squeeze his effort past the keeper. He's a mile offside anyway.
St Johnstone 0-0 Motherwell
An early shout for a penalty at McDiarmid Park, as Paul McGinn hits the deck in the home box under a challenge from Aaron Essel.
The referee is heading to the monitor...
Dundee 0-0 St Mirren
Bright Dundee start as Simon Murray spins and lets fly after a neat touch from Curtis Main.
It deflects, loops high and Ellery Balcombe claims.
