  1. Bloody nose for Brownpublished at 15:23 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Celtic 1-0 Motherwell

    Scott Brown is caught in the face by a flailing arm from Louis Moult and has to leave the pitch to get a bloodied nose attended to.

    The Celtic captain motions towards referee Kevin Clancy that an elbow was involved, but Clancy settles for a drop-ball.

  2. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:22 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Partick Thistle 0-0 Hibernian

    First chance for Thistle and it's a Blair Spittal free-kick from 25 yards that draws a good save from Ofir Marciano, via a slight deflection.

  3. CLOSE!published at 15:20 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Partick Thistle 0-0 Hibernian

    Hibs are in the ascendancy at Firhill and after Martin Boyle races and slaloms his way out of defence, Simon Murray drills in a low ball across the face of goal that just evades the sliding Anthony Stokes.

    We're underway in that delayed kick-off at Tynecastle.

    Hearts owner Ann Budge, fans and staff had to evacuate the stadium after two faulty fire alarms, but we are under way now.

    All he (Liam Craig) has to do is make contact with it, even the side of the boot just to get it out of the danger area. He does panic. He takes a swipe at it. He misses it completely and it just rolls into the back of the net

  7. goal

    GOAL Celtic 1-0 Motherwellpublished at 15:17 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Odsonne Edouard

    Patient play from Celtic sees Scott Sinclair get to the left byline, before cutting it back across the six-yard box, giving Odsonne Edouard an easy tap-in. That's only the 19-year-old French striker's second goal of the season, and his first since September.

  8. YELLOW CARD - Scott Brownpublished at 15:16 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Celtic 0-0 Motherwell

    Jonny Hayes looks like a man on a mission today, on only his sixth start of the season. He swings in an inswinging cross from the right that Richard Tait does well to clear for a corner.

    From the resultant set-piece, Motherwell break on the counter and have a two-on-one when Scott Brown brings down Louis Moult.

    "It was a cynical challenge from Scott Brown, but also possibly a clever one for the good of his team," says Steven Thompson.

    Minutes earlier Chris Cadden had a chance on the edge of the box for Motherwell, but curled his effort over the bar.

    The teams are out at Tynecastle after that 15-minute delay because of faulty fire alarms at the stadium following the building of that new main stand.

  11. Tight opening at Firhillpublished at 15:14 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Partick Thistle 0-0 Hibernian

    First shot on target at Firhill and it comes via the right boot of Simon Murray, who has been typically lively in an even opening few minutes.

    The Hibs striker collects the ball on the edge of the Thistle box, but his effort is deflected and is easy pickings for goalkeeper Tomas Cerny.

  12. goal

    Stuart Findlay

    Stuart Findlay's tame header at a corner bounces towards goal and Liam Craig on the line cannot swipe it clear. Killie ahead.

    There wasn't a big shout. The goalkeeper came and went for the cross, almost missed it completely and almost caught young Kieran Tierney, who was in around the six-yard box. He went down. There was a half shout for a penalty, but this time Kevin Clancy took the wise option and let it go

    It was really poor goalkeeping from Trevor Carson. He decided to come out and punch the ball but flapped at it and missed it completely. He made a heavy contact with Kieran Tierney inside the box, but I don't think it was a penalty. Thankfully, Tierney is back on his feet now

  15. Early chances in Dingwallpublished at 15:08 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Ross County 0-0 Dundee

    County debutant Chris Eagles goes close to an immediate impact but is denied by Dundee goalkeeper Elliot Parish before Roarie Deacon fires over at the other end.

    Then Christopher Routis shoots over for County. Chances galore in Dingwall.

  16. O'Neill watchpublished at 15:07 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Celtic 0-0 Motherwell

    Scotland remain without a manager and the man thought to be the SFA's top target, Northern Ireland manager Michael O'Neill, continues his tour of the nation's grounds.

    Following last week's trip to Tynecastle, O'Neill is at Celtic Park today.

  17. Levein wants more prolific Heartspublished at 15:06 Greenwich Mean Time 2 December 2017

    Heart of Midlothian v Hamilton Academical (15:15)

    Hearts manager Craig Levein: "When there’s any new project that's been rushed as this has, there are going to be things that aren’t right. [The fire alarm going off] is annoying.

    "We had chat with Bobby Madden [the referee] and we’re going to start at quarter past to give the players an hour to do what they do.

    "Kyle [Lafferty] is still not 100%. We don’t know what it is. The doc’s had a look at him and he was well enough to go on the bench.

    "John Souttar comes back. He got a particularly nasty head knock with the under-21s and so missed the last couple of games. We followed the concussions procedures and he’s ready to play.

    "Any games that we’re losing, we’re having opportunities and not taking them.

    "I’m fairly relaxed about the way we’re playing, the effort.

    "We’ve got heart rate monitors and we can keep an eye on what the players are doing and I’m happy with the data. We just need to keep believing and keep doing what we’re doing."

    St Johnstone 0-0 Kilmarnock

    St Johnstone make two changes to their starting line-up, with Liam Gordon and Graham Cummins coming in for the injured Aaron Comrie and late arrival Michael O'Halloran.

    Richard Foster and O'Halloran were due to play but are late to the stadium and O'Halloran is listed as a substitute.

    For Kilmarnock, Gary Dicker, Kris Boyd, Dom Thomas and Eamonn Brophy come in with Adam Frizzell and Lee Erwin dropping to the bench and Rory McKenzie left out.

  20. KICK-OFFpublished at 15:00

    They've made a quick start at McDiarmid Park despite the late arrival of a couple of St Johnstone players.

    A few grounds are behind, including that delayed kick-off at Tynecastle, which will kick-off at 15:15.
