    Celtic 1-0 St Mirren

    Celtic have built on that Leigh Griffiths goal and James Forrest nips off the wing and curls a drive towards the far corner, but goalkeeper Vaclav Hladky does well to pluck it out the air.

    Just as St Mirren had got their footing in this match than the rug is pulled from under their feet.

    The arms went up for offside, but the flag stayed down. Calum Waters switched off and Leigh Griffiths was in to finish calmly from close range.

    A big dent to the early St Mirren confidence.

    Hamilton Academical 0-0 Kilmarnock

    Kilmarnock's Eamonn Brophy meets a cross little more than a yard from goal, but the ball bounces off him and straight to the goalkeeper.

    But there's an early blow for the home side as Jamie Hamilton hobbles off after just 20 minutes, with Mikel Millar replacing him.

    So close to a second goal for Celtic as James Forrest meets a cross at the back post, but goalkeeper Vaclav Hladky claws it clear.

    Christopher Long

    Craig Halkett has had a bit of a howler with the opening goal at Tynecastle - he hesitates on the ball and Chris Long closes him down to nick possession. The Motherwell striker then rounds keeper Bobby Zlamal to finish off a superb solo goal.

    Aberdeen 0-0 Hibernian

    Jamie Gullan springs beyond the Aberdeen defence and bares down on goal. His shot is low and powerful, but Joe Lewis is equal to it and the chances is gone for Hibs.

    St Johnstone 0-0 Livingston

    Stevie May's glancing header from a great early ball has Roby McCrorie scrambling across the line, but he pushed it away well.

    This one hasn't settled down yet, with lots of long balls pinged from end to end. St Johnstone are starting to apply a bit of pressure now though.

    Matty Kennedy fires wide for the Dons. Good spell for the hosts.

    Hamilton Academical 0-0 Kilmarnock

    Hamilton almost concede a horror goal. A long-range shot seems fairly innocuous for goalkeeper Luke Southwood, but the ball spins out of his grasp and into the path of the sprinting Nicke Kabamba.

    But Southwood manages to recover and grasp the ball away from the toes of the Kilmarnock man.

    It remains a very even game and, at the other end, Marios Ogkmpoe heads over the bar for Accies.

    Just when St Mirren had worked themselves into the game, Leigh Griffiths ghosts in unmarked at the back post to side-foot home a cross from strike partner Odsonne Edouard from close range.

    Heart of Midlothian 0-0 Motherwell

    What a goal that almost was. From a Motherwell corner, goalkeeper Bobby Zlamal collects and punts towards the other end. Well goalkeeper Mark Gillespie comes outside his box to clear - straight to Sean Clare and the midfielder strikes from his own half and it would have floated right into the empty net had Liam Grimshaw not rushed back in time to clear.

  13. Ferguson forges the waypublished at 15:17 Greenwich Mean Time 7 March 2020

    Aberdeen 0-0 Hibernian

    Lewis Ferguson goes on a mazy run reminiscent of the build-up to his goal away to St Mirren last week, but the midfielder's strike at the end of it isn't quite as sweet and Hibs goalkeeper Ofir Marciano is able to claim comfortably.

    Moments later, Ferguson flicks another effort wide.

    Celtc 0-0 St Mirren

    St Mirren’s 5-3-2 formation is working so far at Celtic Park. Early days, of course, but the width plus the two men up front is helping to get the away side up the pitch.

    Normally, against most sides domestically, Celtic are dominating the play in the early stages. Not the case so far.

    Cammy MacPherson fires a free-kick over the Celtic wall, but it is straight into the arms of goalkeeper Fraser Forster.

    It has been all Hibs so far at Pittodrie. The two sides may be matching up with the 3-5-2 formations, but it is the visitors who are looking the far more comfortable, and threatening, carrying plenty of menace.

    Heart of Midlothian 0-0 Motherwell

    Hearts applying plenty of pressure in the opening minutes but have yet to carve out any clear-cut chances. The visitors look dangerous on the counter-attack, with a great Aaron Hickey slide tackle stopping a break through Rolando Aarons down the right.

  19. GREAT SAVE!published at 15:10 Greenwich Mean Time 7 March 2020

    Hamilton Academical 0-0 Kilmarnock

    A dreadful mistake from the Kilmarnock defence allows David Moyo to bear down on goal. the striker should score, but goalkeeper Laurentiu Branescu makes a brilliant stop to deny him.

    Celtic 0-0 St Mirren

    St Mirren have been under pressure from the start but threaten at the other end when Calum Waters cuts the ball back from the by-line and the toe of Christopher Jullien comes to the rescue as Junior Morias waits to turn the ball home.
