Hibs get a clear sight of goal once more, but Nectar Triantis can only shoot straight at goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel.

Lewis Miller then has a shot blocked over the bar before the Australian heads straight at the Dane.

How they haven't scored is remarkable.

Fraser Murray has been Kilmarnock's main goal threat and his latest effort is well saved by United goalkeeper Jack Walton.

James Wilson is off, after the 17-year-old played a part in the first goal for Hearts.

He looked lively up front but only had one real chance that bounced off his shins, rather than swivelling and hitting first time.

Alan Forrest on.

Fellow substitute Roland Idowu gets clattered on the edge of the Motherwell box by Steve Seddon - who picks up a yellow card - and gifts St Mirren a really dangerous free-kick.

Conor McMenamin opts to take this one but sends it straight into the arms of goalkeeper Aston Oxborough.

A better move from Aberdeen. Kevin Nisbet turns well and it's worked to Duk, who curls one towards the bottom corner.

Saints goalkeeper Josh Rae gets down to push the ball away though.

Hibs could, and perhaps should, be in this contest given the amount of clear-cut chances they have had this afternoon.

An underhit backpass from Luke McCowan allows Elie Youan to prod a shot at goal that Kasper Schmeichel blocks before Nicky Cadden's follow-up effort is turned behind.

Here come the changes for St Mirren. Mikael Mandron replaces Toyosi Olusanya while Roland Idowu is on for Greg Kiltie.

The number nine makes an immediate impact, heading into the hands of goalkeeper Aston Oxborough.

Will Ferry spins and shoots over from the edge of the Kilmarnock box.

Is this going to be one of those days for United?

Dundee United 0-0 Kilmarnock

VAR is having another look at Danny Armstrong's sliding challenge on Vicko Sevelj.

It looks ugly and Sevelj is hurt, but there's no red card in the end for the Kilmarnock winger.

Change for Kilmarnock now with Bobby Wales taking over from Bruce Anderson in attack.

What a save from Ellery Balcombe to deny Steve Seddon! The Buddies goalkeeper tips Seddon's volley on to the bar and out for a corner.

The hosts have had the better of the second half, but Motherwell are growing into this one.

Dearie me, Jack Milne tries to whip a cross to the back post for Kevin Nisbet, but it almost catches out St Johnstone goalkeeper Josh Rae.

He just claws it away at the last moment.

Lawrence Shankland is into the referee's book as the Hearts striker catches Mo Sylla on the crown of the head.

Just a yellow.

We've got a VAR check at Tynecastle...

Ryan Astley is wrestling with Hearts striker Lawrence Shankland in the box as a cross comes in from the right.

Play on.

Joe Newell has his head in his hands. He couldn't do much about the own goal, with Adam Idah's header coming straight at him.

The Hibs captain also missed a glorious first-half chance when he blasted over from close range.

Not his afternoon, not manager David Gray's either. It's those fine margins again. Sound familiar, Hibs fans?

Aberdeen striker Kevin Nisbet is booked for diving on the edge of the box. Rightly so. He goes down expecting a nudge from behind that never came.

Poor from the Dons' number nine.

Bruce Anderson smacks a volley straight at United goalkeeper Jack Walton from the edge of the box.

Kilmarnock starting to get more chances in this game.
