    Scott Sinclair

    Hat-trick!

    More good work from Odsonne Edouard as the substitute leaves a trail of defenders in his wake to get inside the six yard box and then flicks the ball with the outside of his foot to Scott Sinclair to tuck in his third goal of the afternoon.

    Odsonne Edouard

    In the blink of an eye, Celtic are back in front as Odsonne Edouard holds off a couple of players and lofts a great shot over Joe Lewis. A deadly counter-attack.

    Jordan Jones

    Jordan Jones threatened just moments ago but, oh my, what an effort.

    The Killie winger receives the ball out wide on the touchline, is given plenty time and space to deliver a ball into the box, but instead of picking out a man it flies straight into the top corner.

    Did he mean it? Who knows, but Motherwell should have done better.

    Sam Cosgrove

    Big Sam Cosgrove keeps his scoring run going with a nicely struck spot-kick.

    That's seven goals in five games for the Aberdeen striker.

  5. PENALTYpublished at 15:37 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Aberdeen 1-2 Celtic

    Graeme Shinnie goes down. Willie Collum points to the spot. Soft...

    The Dons captain managed to get in front of Mikael Lustig then took a tumble. Was there a wee hand on the back to help him on his way?

  6. CLOSE!published at 15:36 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Hearts 1-0 Hamilton

    Hearts close to a second goal. Steven Naismith takes a quick free-kick after being fouled and finds strike partner Steven MacLean running into the box, but the veteran's effort flies just over the bar.

  7. CLOSE!published at 15:35 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Dundee 0-0 Livingston

    So close to an opener for Dundee as Benjamin Kallman fires a shot across the face of goal but just wide.

  8. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:34 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Rangers 1-0 Hibernian

    Allan McGregor delivers a double save to keep Rangers in front. First, he stops Martin Boyle's effort, then reacts quickly to deny Florian Kamberi.

  9. When the substitute gets substituted...published at 15:33 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Motherwell 0-0 Kilmarnock

    Motherwell fears are confirmed as they are forced into making their third change of the game after just 28 minutes.

    Substitute Christian Mbulu, who had come on for Charles Dunne after a head knock, has now had to go off. Liam Grimshaw is on, and the home side will need to see out the game with the players they have on the park.

    With Curtis Main also suffering following an accidental boot in the face, it could be a long afternoon for the Steelmen.

    Scott Sinclair

    Celtic find a change of gear as James Forrest scurries on to a pass from Odsonne Edouard and the winger crosses for Scott Sinclair to slot in his second of the game as he gets between two defenders.

    Very much hanging in the balance this one, Brendan Rodgers will be hoping the recently introduced Odsonne Edouard can give Celtic a cutting edge, which has been lacking in this game so far

    Ryan Christie curls a free-kick on target from 30 yards and Joe Lewis takes no chances, diving to push it round the post.

    Dundee 0-0 Livingston

    Andy Boyle is treading hot water. The Dundee defender has already been booked for ripping the jersey off Dolly Menga. He’s subsequently had two fouls on the Livingston striker - another and he could be seeing a red card from referee Bobby Madden.

    Alfredo Morelos notches his 20th goal of the season, showing his poacher's instincts as he converts past Adam Bogdan from inside the penalty area after Daniel Candeias's header sent him through.

    The visitors make another change and it's a return from injury for striker Odsonne Edouard, who takes the place of Callum McGregor.

  16. Bad luck in threes?published at 15:24 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Motherwell 0-0 Kilmarnock

    Things are getting worse for Motherwell. After just losing two players to a head knock, striker Curtis Main has just been backheeled in the head by team-mate Christian Mbulu. As you do...

    He's currently getting looked at by medics but looks to be okay.

  17. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:24 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Dundee 0-0 Livingston

    Livi have been under the cosh a bit but go close to taking the lead.

    Keaghan Jacobs whips a free-kick into the Dundee penalty box and, as it is missed by everyone else, it appears to be heading for the back of the net until goalkeeper Jack Hamilton's fingertip touches it wide.

    Aberdeen 1-1 Celtic

    James Forrest spots a chink of light in the Dons defence and sets off on a gallop only to be thwarted by a great tackle from Scott McKenna.

    Rangers 0-0 Hibernian

    Rangers make their presence felt in the opposition penalty area, but Conor Goldson's header is deflected into the path of Hibs goalkeeper Adam Bogdan.

  20. HITS THE WOODWORKpublished at 15:20 Greenwich Mean Time 26 December 2018

    Dundee 0-0 Livingston

    Nathan Ralph has been a shining light in among the gloom at Dens Park this season and the English left-back sends a left-foot drive off the top of the bar from 25 yards.
