  1. Miller mis-firingpublished at 16:15 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Dundee 0-0 Livingston

    Kenny Miller has so far left his shooting boots in the dressing-room this afternoon.

    The veteran has a sight at goal again just inside the penalty box, but he appears to stub his toe and his shot is weak and straight at goalkeeper Liam Kelly.

    Now it is Benjamin Kallman's turn to shoot straight at Kelly after making space for himself on the edge of the penalty box.

    Rangers 1-0 Hibernian

    Hibs striker Florian Kamberi delivers the first attacking effort after the break, but his firmly-hit shot flies over Allan McGregor's goal as Rangers maintain their lead.

  3. GOOD SAVEpublished at 16:12 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Dundee 0-0 Livingston

    Dundee have started the second half on top and Kenny Miller latches on to a long ball through the heart of the Livi defence.

    The veteran striker shrugs off Alan Lithgow's challenge but side-foots into the body of goalkeeper Liam Kelly from point-blank range.

    Hearts - and Callumn Morrison in particular - continuing where they left off at Tynecastle. Morrison turns Sean McMann inside out on the right flank before sending in a cross that has Gary Woods back-pedalling before landing on the top of the net.

    It was a bit of a snore until Celtic's got their second goal. The game died after half time but then burst back into life spectacularly.

    Odsonne Edouard is a big time player and he made the difference for Celtic. We've been waiting for that kind of performance

  9. Jones fires Kilmarnock in frontpublished at 15:58 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    HT: Motherwell 0-1 Kilmarnock

    Jonathan Sutherland
    BBC Sport Scotland at Fir Park

    It was probably a cross... but let’s be generous of spirit on Boxing Day and applaud Jordan Jones for the goal that nestled in the top corner and currently makes the difference between these sides.

    It’s a deserved lead when it comes down to number of chances - for the final 15 minutes of this match Kilmarnock were certainly the side on top. Greg Stewart, Jones and latterly Kris Boyd all with opportunities. Motherwell simply struggle to create. There was a chance for Elliott Frear but his effort was blocked.

    Before all that though this was a match defined by injuries rather than incident. Huge misfortune for Motherwell as they lost three players to head injuries - Carl McHugh, Christian Mbulu and Charles Dunne - particularly serious for the latter as he was stretchered from the field. We wish him well.

  10. HALF-TIME - Rangers 1-0 Hibernianpublished at 15:55 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Alfredo Morelos opened the scoring at Ibrox - notching his 20th goal of the season - while Allan McGregor's double save kept Hibs at bay.

    It's been bruising at times, with the visitors losing Lewis Stevenson to injury, and Rangers defender Connor Goldson needing treatment just before the break.

  11. HALF-TIME Motherwell 0-1 Kilmarnockpublished at 15:54 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    It's been a bit bonkers down at Fir Park, with Motherwell losing three players to head knocks inside 28 minutes.

    To add insult to injury, a cross from Jordan Jones then flew into the net to give Kilmarnock the lead.

  12. FULL-TIME St Mirren 0-1 St Johnstonepublished at 15:52 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    The points go back to Perth after Tony Watt's last-minute header.

  13. HALF-TIME - Hearts 2-0 Hamiltonpublished at 15:51 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    After successive defeats, Hearts are well placed to record only their second win in their last nine Premiership matches.

    Steven Naismith's curled finish and a second from Arnaud Djoum just before the interval have the hosts well in control at Tynecastle.

  14. HALF-TIME - Dundee 0-0 Livingstonpublished at 15:51 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Dundee are looking to avoid a fourth straight defeat, are without a win in four but are unbeaten in three games at home.

    All those runs look like continuing as they and Livingston are tied at the break.

    Dundee's Nathan Ralph fired against the crossbar while goalkeeper Jack Hamilton did superbly to react late and turn a Keaghan Jacobs free kick finding the net.

  16. FULL-TIME Aberdeen 3-4 Celticpublished at 15:50 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Celtic stay top of the Premiership pile after a late flurry of goals at Pittodrie.

    Odsonne Edouard came off the bench for an impressive cameo, tucking away a lovely goal and setting up Scott Sinclair to complete his hat-trick. He also played a key role in Celtic's second.

    Another good cross from the right flank from the impressive Callumn Morrison, and Accies fail to clear the danger. The ball drops to Arnaud Djoum, who controls it with his first touch before firing right-footed into the bottom-left corner.
