    St Mirren 2-1 Dundee

    Another big chance for St Mirren to increase their lead. Genseric Kusunga clears off the line from Ryan Flynn's shot.

    Minutes later St Mirren do have the ball in the net but Simeone Jackson's header is ruled out for an earlier foul.

    Richard Tait

    Skipper Richard Tait caps a superb second-half show from the Steelmen with a curled finish from the left-hand side of the box. The ball seems to deceive Saints keeper Zander Clark and nestles in the bottom corner.

  4. So Frear, yet so farpublished at 16:43 Greenwich Mean Time 30 March 2019

    Motherwell 2-0 St Johnstone

    It should be 3-0 as Elliott Frear bursts through the middle, but the opening scorer drags his shot wide with just the keeper to beat.

    Chris Burke

    Chris Burke is not long on as a substitute and he adds his name to the scoresheet, albeit somewhat fortuitously.

    The winger receives a pass in the inside left channel and his ball across is deflected into the net off the boot of Matt Kilgallon.

  6. Big chance for Buddiespublished at 16:40 Greenwich Mean Time 30 March 2019

    St Mirren 2-1 Dundee

    It's a sitter for St Mirren. They should be two goals clear but they leave the door open for Dundee.

    Brad Lyons' shot is saved. The rebound falls to Anders Dreyer but he heads over with the goal at his mercy.

  7. Bad day at the office for Acciespublished at 16:39 Greenwich Mean Time 30 March 2019

    Kilmarnock 3-0 Hamilton

    All the plaudits will go to Kilmarnock today for their performance but Hamilton Academical have been really poor.

    Aimless passes and poor marking have been their scourge and they are far from out of relegation trouble on this form.

    Ikpeazu is built like a heavyweight boxer but he can run. He absolutely ragdolled Considine there

    Uche Ikpeazu

    What a turnaround at Tynecastle as Uche Ikpeazu makes up for his earlier miss with a crucial goal.

    It's a simple ball forward that Andy Considine fails to deal with, Scott McKenna then does the same and Ikpeazu keeps his cool to fire the ball into the bottom corner.

    It's been coming and Motherwell get their second goal as David Turnbull wrong-foots keeper Zander Clark from the edge of the box after good build-up work from Allan Campbell played him in.

    Skipper Richard Tait marauds forward and rattles the crossbar with a curling 20-yard strike as Motherwell push for a killer second goal.

  12. Miller time for Dundeepublished at 16:33 Greenwich Mean Time 30 March 2019

    St Mirren 2-1 Dundee

    Dundee bring on veteran striker Kenny Miller as they try to spark a revival. Apart from Craig Curran's chance at the beginning of the half, the visitors have offered little since the re-start.

    It's not that Hearts are doing anything differently, it's just that the their Plan A is working a lot better in the second half.

    Heart of Midlothian 1-1 Aberdeen

    Hearts are now hammering on the Dons' door.

    Christophe Berra nods the ball across goal and Craig Wighton just can't sort his feet out in time to finish, allowing the visitors to hack it clear.

  16. Killie coasting in the sunshinepublished at 16:27 Greenwich Mean Time 30 March 2019

    It was only a matter of time before Killie got a second goal their play deserved and now they have a third and should have made it four.

    Accies have no answer to the inventive play from the home team. McKenzie set up Mulumbu for the third and the winger should have scored himself when his first time striker from Kris Boyd’s headed knock down went straight at goalkeeper Woods.

    Elliott Frear

    Lovely curling finish from the edge of the box puts the Steelmen ahead. Charles Dunne bursts forward from defence and his pass is laid off superbly by Curtis Main for substitute Frear to guide a shot into the bottom corner.

    Motherwell 0-0 St Johnstone

    Saints have been the better side in the second half, but they almost fall behind as Elliott Frear tries a first-time curler from 16 yards that trickles wide. Allan Campbell then has a shot blocked as the Steelmen turn up the pressure.

  19. Ikpeazu booked for divingpublished at 16:25 Greenwich Mean Time 30 March 2019

    Heart of Midlothian 1-1 Aberdeen

    Hearts striker Uche Ikpeazu is cautioned for diving in the box but the replays show the big striker was very, very unlucky. He gets to the ball before Joe Lewis and the Aberdeen keeper appears to catch him.

    Referee John Beaton saw it differently and flashed a yellow card. A huge let-off for Aberdeen.

  20. GREAT SAVE!published at 16:24 Greenwich Mean Time 30 March 2019

    Kilmarnock 3-0 Hamilton

    Kris Boyd nods the ball down to Rory McKenzie, who deserves a goal for his performance today, but his volley from inside the six yard box is blocked by Gary Woods.

    McKenzie is left shaking his head in disbelief.
