Aberdeen 2-2 Rangers
Tyrone Smith
BBC Scotland at PittodrieI repeat, it is a funny old game, Aberdeen starting the second half the way Rangers began the first. A few questions now being posed of Rangers.
GOAL Aberdeen 2-2 Rangerspublished at 47 mins
Andrew Considine
Hello! Andrew Considine has just set this game alight. He finishes at the back post as Rangers fail to deal with a long-throw and then Lewis Ferguson's cross. Game on!

Willie Miller
Former Scotland defender on BBC SportsoundThey've had a clattering Aberdeen but they've shown resilience. Rangers have played some mouth-watering football, moving the ball slickly, the players moving and interchanging has made it difficult to pin them down.

HT: Celtic 1-0 Hamilton
Jonathan Sutherland
BBC Sport Scotland at Celtic ParkThis has gone pretty much to plan for Celtic. Almost total dominance and a 1-0 lead courtesy of Ryan Christie, Luke Southwood spilling a Lewis Morgan shot and Christie eagerly mopping up the crumbs to claim his 16th Celtic goal of the season.
Hamilton have only managed rare forays forward, Mickel Miller with the best chance but from the edge of the box he fired high into the Glasgow night sky.

There hasn’t been a deluge of chances created by Celtic - James Forrest went close and Olivier Ntcham should have scored from six yards out - but Neil Lennon’s side doing enough for three points.
Will Neil Lennon be drumming into his players the importance of goal difference?
Dons relieved to remain in touchpublished at 20:35 Greenwich Mean Time 4 December 2019
HT: Aberdeen 1-2 Rangers
Tyrone Smith
BBC Scotland at PittodrieRangers should have had this game sewn up after a totally dominant first half display - they have the lead, but it should be a whole lot more.
Aberdeen will be heading in at the break relieved that they are still in touch, and that Gallagher goal will have given them some belief, belief that looked like it was lacking.
The phrase 'it is a funny old game' is certainly applicable to this one.
HT in the Premiershippublished at 20:34

Marvin Bartley's first goal in five years has Livingston ahead at Tynecastle. A sweet, sweet moment for the former Hibs stalwart.
Hearts dominated the opening half-hour, Craig Halkett missing a golden chance against his former side, skewing a free header wide from six yards, with Jamie Walker and Sean Clare also coming close.
But with half-time approaching, Hearts failed to deal with a long throw, and Bartley pounced to smash home on the volley. It just gets worse and worse for Hearts, second-bottom of the Premiership as things stand.

Hibs lead thanks to a seventh goal in five games from Christian Doidge.
The visitors have been the brighter side, with Jason Naismith smashing a shot against the woodwork and Scott Allan strutting his stuff in midfield.

HALF-TIME Kilmarnock 0-0 St Johnstonepublished at 20:31 Greenwich Mean Time 4 December 2019
It's been a very poor first half at Rugby Park. St Johnstone started by far the brighter of the two sides, with Kilmarnock passive and struggling to get to grips with the pace of the game. Aside from Chris Burke's block from Liam Gordon's goalbound effort, Larenciu Bransecu was not troubled in the Killie goal, however.
The hosts have grown into the game slightly, and had a golden chance to take the lead just before the whistle. Burke's free-kick was met by Stephen O'Donnell but his effort went narrowly wide.
It can only get better, right?
Image source, SNSHALF-TIME Celtic 1-0 Hamilton Acciespublished at 20:30
As it stands, Celtic will remain top of the league by just a single goal after Ryan Christie's 16th strike of the season has them 1-0 up over Brian Rice's Hamilton.
The Scotland international smashed home a rebound after Hamilton goalkeeper Luke Southwood couldn't hold onto Lewis Morgan's effort.

Rangers were absolutely cruising for 35 minutes and deservedly led through Scott Arfield, with Ryan Jack finishing a fine team move for the second. But out of nowhere Aberdeen crafted a goal of their own to keep the game alive at the break, Jon Gallagher, with the finish having played dreadfully up to that point.
What do we have in store after the break?

The Aberdeen fans are unhappy with referee John Beaton as Alfredo Morelos clips the galloping Lewis Ferguson... but no booking for the Colombian striker.

Kheredine Idessane
BBC Sport Scotland in PaisleyQuote MessageA second goal from James Scott and again it’s a thing of beauty. Andreu lost the ball in midfield, Polworth picked it up, and played a perfect pass into the path of the breaking Scott, who timed his run behind the defence perfectly and his finish was sublime, chipping it over the on-rushing Hladky. Motherwell, all of a sudden, in complete control.

The home side are wobbling here as Florian Kamberi scurries after a long ball and gets there just before the advancing Nathan Baxter but the striker's touch nicks off the keeper and the Staggies fans breathe again.

Another effort just minutes later for Celtic. This time Olivier Ntcham goes for goal, but the midfielder fails to hit the target with his effort from close range
GOAL Aberdeen 1-2 Rangerspublished at 39 mins
Jon Gallagher
Well, that came from nowhere! It's the first time Aberdeen have really managed to keep hold of the ball and they get themselves back into the game. Sam Cosgrove slips the ball to James Wilson who drives at the Rangers defence, plays in Jon Gallagher who rounds Allan McGregor to finish.
The ball came off the shoulder of James Tavernier on the way in as he attempted to prevent it crossing the line.
