  1. HALF-TIME Hibernian 1-1 Kilmarnockpublished at 15:48 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    Kris Boyd broke the deadlock at Easter Road after just two minutes with a cracking 20-yard strike, but since then it's been all Hibs, with Lewis Stevenson, Danny Swanson, Darren McGregor and Martin Boyle all going close.

    However, it was a shocking error from Killie goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald that gifted Hibs their leveller, as the former Hearts man spilled a corner right at the feet of Oli Shaw, who stabbed the ball home.

    Hibs continued to dominate proceedings after their equaliser. But, as yet, they haven't been able to take the lead.

  2. HALF-TIME Motherwell 1-1 Hamilton Academicalpublished at 15:48 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    Motherwell will be disappointed to go in all square at half time.

    They made an excellent start and took the lead their play merited when Craig Tanner finished Ryan Bowman's near-post delivery.

    Despite dominating for spells, Well were pegged back when Ali Crawford's shot appeared to hit the hands of the diving Peter Hartley and a penalty was given.

    Dougie Imrie took the responsibility and made no mistake from 12 yards.

    Feels like this game is over already with Dundee 1-0 up and St Johnstone now down to 10 men.

    The sending off looked like the correct decision - it was a high, dangerous challenge from Foster.

    But it’s rather sucked the life out of this game as a contest.

  4. CLOSE!published at 15:47 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    St Johnstone 0-1 Dundee

    Almost a second for Dundee.

    Marcus Haber's shot is palmed up into the air by goalkeeper Elliot Parish and A-Jay Leitch-Smith's attempts to turn home the rebound is scrambled clear by the St Johnstone defence.

    It's all going wrong for Queens in Falkirk as Louis Longridge puts the hosts three goals ahead.

    Hearts goalkeeper Jon McLaughlin makes a terrific reaction stop to deny Adam Rooney.

    It's all square at Fir Park as Dougie Imrie rolls his spot-kick into the goalkeeper's left corner.

    Jordan Sinclair scores his second of the season - his fifth of the season - at Brechin come from behind to lead.

    Could Brechin be heading for their first league win of the season?

  11. McDonald off, Lafferty onpublished at 15:38 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    Aberdeen 0-0 Heart of Midlothian

    Another enforced substitution for Hearts, with teenage winger Anthony McDonald suffering a leg injury.

    He's replaced with striker Kyle Lafferty, who had been left on the bench because manager Craig Levein feared he could be prone to an injury himself because his body needs a rest.

    This is an absolute nightmare for the County captain Andrew Davies.

    He turns and tries to play a backpass to Scott Fox, but he’s woefully short.

    Kris Doolan is on to it in a flash. The striker rounds the goalkeeper and, although Davies desperately tries to get back to atone for his error, Doolan sidefoots into the empty net. That could be a priceless goal.

  13. CLOSE!published at 15:34 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    Hibernian 1-1 Kilmarnock

    At one end, Scott Boyd's effort is deflected wide before Hibs gather from the corner kick and race downfield, where Danny Swanson sees his shot diverted past the post.

  14. Dundee flying highpublished at 15:34 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    St Johnstone 0-1 Dundee

    St Johnstone have not won at home in six league matches since 23 September.

    That run threatens to stretch into the new year after Dundee scored early on via Marcus Haber before Saints had full-back Richard Foster red-carded.

  15. Bottom sides in battle of attritionpublished at 15:34 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    Partick Thistle 0-0 Ross County

    Alasdair Lamont
    BBC Sport Scotland at Firhill

    It may come as no great surprise to learn that the bottom two sides have produced a game of pretty low quality so far.

    County can perhaps be the slightly happier side with their performance, but as the league table suggests, there’s very little between the teams.

  16. CLOSE!published at 15:33 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    Aberdeen 0-0 Hearts

    Hearts break upfield, David Milinkovic is played clean through on goal, but Aberdeen goalkeeper Joe Lewis rushes out and blocks the winger's effort.

  17. Tale of two tacklespublished at 15:29 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    St Johnstone 0-1 Dundee

    Jonathan Sutherland
    BBC Sport Scotland at McDiarmid Park

    A real talking point as Denny Johnstone slides in, two-footed, to win a challenge with Glen Kamara.

    The Finland international had done really well to break up a St Johnstone attack before Johnstone came flying in.

    To be fair to the St Johnstone player, he wins the ball, but he gets a yellow card from referee Willie Collum. On another day, it could have been a red.

    And then we do have a straight red, this time for St Johnstone defender Richard Foster after a high challenge connecting with the knee of Paul McGowan.

    A really poor attempt at a tackle from Foster. Not sure how much malice was involved, but whatever the rights and wrongs, he is shown a straight red.

  18. 'Howler' from MacDonaldpublished at 15:28 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    Hibernian 1-1 Hilmarnock

    Former Hibs striker Tam McManus on Radio Scotland: "That is an absolute nightmare, a howler from Jamie MacDonald. He has dropped it right at the feet of Oli Shaw."

  19. goal

    Oli Shaw

    It's a howler, a blunder, a moment to forget for Killie goalkeeper Jamie MacDonald.

    He catches, then immediately spills John McGinn's corner right on to the toe of Oli Shawand the teenage Hibs striker gleefully knocks the ball into the empty net from a yard out.

    The Hibs fans are giving the former Hearts goalkeeper quite a bit of stick for that one.

  20. Killie weathering Hibs stormpublished at 15:24 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2017

    Hibernian 0-1 Kilmarnock

    Killie are handling everything Hibs can throw at them after that second-minute Kris Boyd opener.

    And the hosts are creating quite a bit, with Lewis Stevenson, Danny Swanson, Darren McGregor and, most recently, Martin Boyle threatening.
