    Dundee 1-2 Rangers

    It's a wasted chance for Dundee as Mark O'Hara drifts over a lovely ball from the right wing. It misses the retreating Rangers defenders but Michael Duffy just cannot quite wrap his left boot around it.

    Dundee 1-2 Rangers

    Harry Forrester brings down Cammy Kerr as the Dundee player gets away from him out on the left wing. What is he thinking about?! He could easily have been booked for that. Forrester's head must be reeling at the minute because he spoils a chance for Rangers when he, in an offside position, touches the ball, just as Joey Barton, who was ON-side, rushes in to shoot.

    The Dundee skipper is back on his feet but he doesn't give Forrester too warm a reception when the Rangers player offers an apology.

    Harry Forrester is late with a challenge on Dundee's Darren O'Dea, clipping his ankle. The Rangers forward is booked, while O'Dea gets some treatment.

  6. Championship round-uppublished at 13:12 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    A bumper crowd is expected at Easter Road as Hibernian prepare for the visit of Dunfermline. It was 2012 in the top flight when those two last met.

    Dundee United visit Dumbarton and in-form Morton host Falkirk, who lost at home to Hibs on the opening day. Queen of the South, buoyed by a cup win at Hibs in midweek, welcome Ayr United to Palmerston Park, while play-off hopefuls Raith Rovers and St Mirren meet at Stark's Park.

  7. Motherwell v St Johnstone (1500)published at 13:11 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    Carl McHugh misses out for Motherwell with the midfielder suffering delayed concussion following a collision with Kilmarnock's Dean Hawkshaw last Saturday which left him with a gaping head wound. Jacob Blyth returns to the squad following an Achilles problem but Steven Hammell is a doubt, as is player-assistant boss James McFadden, while striker Louis Moult is missing. 

    Tam Scobbie is a major doubt for St Johnstone after going off with a leg injury during the midweek Betfred Cup victory over Hearts. Fellow defenders Keith Watson, Ally Gilchrist and Dave Mackay are already out. Murray Davidson and Graham Cummins return from knocks, with Chris Millar hoping to shake off a groin problem. 

    Motherwell must recover from a cup trouncing at Celtic Park on Wednesday, while the Perth club came from behind to beat Hearts on the same night.

    Saints had the upper hand over Motherwell last season, winning three of the four meetings. 

    Referee: Euan Anderson

  8. Inverness CT v Ross County (1500)published at 13:10 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    Goalkeeper Ryan Esson returns to the home bench after recovering from a groin problem. Defender Josh Meekings has returned to training following a knee injury but is unlikely to feature. 

    Ross County full-back Marcus Fraser is moving closer to full fitness and central defender Scott Boyd resumed training earlier in the week after an illness. 

    Both clubs are out of the League Cup already and both opened the Premiership campaign with defeats last weekend. 

    Caley Thistle may have finished in the bottom half of the table last season but they enjoyed a good run in the derbies, with three victories. 

    Referee: Andrew Dallas 

  9. Hamilton v Kilmarnock (1500)published at 13:09 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    Hamilton hope to have Alex D'Acol and Eamonn Brophy back following their midweek League Cup loss to Morton. However, Gramoz Kurtaj, Danny Redmond, Scott McMann, Jesus Garcia Tena, Craig Watson, Jordan McGregor and player-manager Martin Canning are all sidelined. 

    Kilmarnock begin life without Josh Magennis, having sold last season's top scorer to Charlton. 

    Accies opened with a creditable draw at Rangers but then suffered that surprise defeat in the cup, while Killie didn't make it out of the group stage in that tournament and slipped to defeat at home to Motherwell last weekend. 

    The honours were even last term, with each team winning two of the four head-to-heads. 

    Referee: Steven McLean

  10. Aberdeen v Hearts (1500)published at 13:08 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    Aberdeen duo Ash Taylor and Peter Pawlett return to the squad following suspension and illness, respectively. Striker Jayden Stockley has been struggling with a back issue, while winger Jonny Hayes is out with a hamstring tear.

    Hearts midfielder Jamie Walker is suspended after his two-match diving ban was upheld. Perry Kitchen is available following a hamstring injury but there has been a further delay in securing international clearance for striker Bjorn Johnsen following his move from Bulgaria.

    Hearts lost at home to champions Celtic last weekend and were then promptly knocked out of the League Cup despite leading 2-1 at St Johnstone with 15 minutes remaining. The Dons enjoyed a midweek cup win at Ayr after an opening weekend draw at McDiarmid Park. 

    The league points were split evenly between these two last season, with two wins apiece.

  11. Rangers' defending haunts them againpublished at 13:07 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    Dundee 1-2 Rangers

    Richard Wilson
    BBC Scotland at Dens Park

    "Dundee were completely outplayed for most of the first half. They have not been able to cope with Rangers' movement. If Kenny Miller had been in the right position he could have had a couple of goals. Rangers' poor defending is an ongoing issue for them. Halliday, Barton and Rossiter, without being very eye-catching on their own, controlled things for Rangers."

  12. HALF-TIMEpublished at 13:03 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    Dundee 1-2 Rangers

    Rangers had another half-chance just before Craig Thomson blew for half-time, but Kenny Miller's shot was blocked. That header by O'Hara will have surely revived the Dark Blues.

    Danny Williams flights in a corner from the right and Mark O'Hara rises way above Danny Wilson to head powerfully past Wes Foderingham and change the nature of the half-time team talks.

    Dundee 0-2 Rangers

    Barrie McKay picks up possession just inside the Dundee half and slips the ball down the inside-left channel for Kenny Miller, who breaks the offside trap perfectly. However, the former Scotland striker's next move is flawed as he shows too much of the ball to keeper Scott Bain who gathers at the striker's feet.

    Lee Wallace's cutback spins favourably for Kenny Miller who cracks home a left-footed shot that gives Scott Bain no chance. For, um, a "veteran", Miller showed terrific speed and agility to get on to that.

    BBC Scotland commentator Rob Maclean: "Rangers are looking very, very comfortable. They are running the show here, make no mistake."

    Dundee 0-1 Rangers

    Dundee defender Darren O'Dea (that has a lyrical quality if you say it a few times) is booked for knocking over a Rangers player off the ball just outside the box. Midfielder Joey Barton takes the resultant free-kick but it fails to clear the wall.

  19. Dundee in a hurrypublished at 12:48 British Summer Time 13 August 2016

    Richard Wilson
    BBC Scotland at Dens Park

    "Dundee are pressing vigorously in midfield and working hard to close down spaces, but the movement of the Rangers players is causing them alarm. Individuals are switching positions constantly, so the angles and tempo of the visitors' attacks keep changing. Dundee are also struggling through their own tendency to rush their passing and concede possession."
