First real chance for St Mirren as the free-kick is floated into the box but Scott Tanser heads well over the crossbar, no sweat for Kasper Schmeichel.

Seb Palmer-Houlden
It's pretty feeble stuff again from the Saints backline.
They fail to clear their lines and Clark Robertson drags one across goal for Seb Palmer-Houlden to bundle in at the back post.
There will be a VAR check for offside. It's tight but it's given.

Struggled to get the arm up in celebration of that Simon Murray goal.
Dream start for Dundee.

Kilmarnock 0-0 Ross County
That's a nightmare for Kilmarnock. Innes Cameron was brought in to provide some freshness up top, but he's gone down holding his hamstring after three minutes.
Marley Watkins is on to replace him.

Ewan Wilson
After a succession of low crosses weren't converted by the hosts, Ewan Wilson makes no mistake with an emphatic finish.
Tawanda Maswanhise holds it up well and lays it off for Tony Watt on the right-hand side of the box.
He drills it into the middle looking for Moses Ebiye, who misses it, but Wilson is alert at the back post to slam it into the roof of the net.

Motherwell 0-0 Aberdeen
Ante Palaversa lunges in for the ball and catches Andy Halliday in the process, gifting Motherwell a free-kick in a decent position to whip the ball in.
Halliday targets Dan Casey at the back post but the whistle goes straightaway for an infringement on the edge of the area by a home player.

Simon Murray
A nightmare for St Johnstone.
Josh Rae comes for a deep free-kick and doesn't claim. He goes for it again and team-mate Drey Wright boots it out of his grasp!
The ball eventually falls for Simon Murray, who takes a touch and finishes into the far corner.

Kilmarnock 0-0 Ross County
An early chance for Kilmarnock. Fraser Murray is freed on the left, skips inside and curls a shot at goal. It bounces around the box and goalkeeper Jordan Amissah gratefully clutches the ball.

Celtic 0-0 St Mirren
Nicolas Kuhn makes a hugely impressive solo run into the St Mirren box before he's tackled and wins Celtic a corner.
Adam Idah gets his head on Arne Engel's delivery but it bounces wide.
A very bright start for Brendan Rodgers' side.

BBC Sport Scotland at Rugby ParkHats, pies, scarves and whatever else can help fuel fans today at a bitterly cold Rugby Park.
A tight affair last time when the sides met so hopefully the players can bring the heat today with Kilmarnock edging towards the top six and Ross County aiming to steer away from the bottom end of the table.

Well, as Jane noticed a few moments ago, Stuart Kettlewell was indeed in danger of picking up a caution.
The Motherwell manager has just been shown a yellow card by referee Nick Walsh.
