    Motherwell 0-0 Aberdeen

    It's Aberdeen who are on the front foot and playing some nice stuff, but it's lacking an end product.

    Accies have made a couple of changes in an effort to try to get back into this game. Justin Johnson and Andy Winter are now both on the park. There’s been a change in goal too for Accies, an enforced one though after Ryan Fulton limped off. Kyle Gourley has replaced him.

    Leigh Griffiths

    Moments after his firm shot is well blocked by goalkeeper Ross Laidlaw, Leigh Griffiths gets another chance and this time his well-placed header leaves Laidlaw with no chance.

  4. Action resumes at Motherwellpublished at 19:21

    Motherwell 0-0 Aberdeen

    We're off again at Fir Park. Could do with a few goals before Christmas, please!

    Striker Sam Cosgrove is on for Aberdeen as he replaces Connor McLennan.

  5. Morelos on for Rangerspublished at 65 mins

    St Johnstone 0-3 Rangers

    Kemar Roofe has run his race this evening and Alfredo Morelos is on for Rangers with 25 minutes remaining at McDiarmid Park.

  6. Griffiths spurns Celtic chancepublished at 57 mins

    Celtic 1-0 Ross County

    Leigh Griffiths scurries onto a pass from Callum McGregor but he wants to get it on his left when the situation calls for his right. That slows the Celtic striker down and allows Alex Iacovitti to get back and block the shot.

  7. HALF-TIME Dundee United 2-0 Kilmarnockpublished at 19:18

    Chris Burke and Calum Water sent efforts wide for Kilmarnock just before the half-time whistle, but Kilmarnock have not looked like ending their goal drought, with is now three and a half games.

    Two quick-fire goals from Marc McNulty and Lawrence Shankland have United looking relatively comfortable at the break.

  9. A switch of keeper at Easter Roadpublished at 57 mins

    Hibernian 1-0 St Mirren

    Tonight had been going fairly smoothly for Hibernian, but this is a worrying sight.

    The assured Ofir Marciano has been replaced in goal by Dillon Barnes, with the Israeli international seemingly injured.

    Could that be a turning point in this game?

  10. Hagi adds third for Rangerspublished at 19:13

    St Johnstone 0-3 Rangers

    Ianis Hagi fired home Rangers' third goal at McDiarmid Park.

  11. GREAT SAVE!published at 55 mins

    St Johnstone 0-3 Rangers

    Striker Stevie May gets in behind the Rangers defence and gets away a goal-bound shot but Allan McGregor makes an excellent save.

  12. CLOSE!published at 51 mins

    Hibernian 1-0 St Mirren

    That. Is. A. Sitter. St Mirren should be level.

    A great ball in from Cammy MacPherson finds substitute Ilkay Durmus, but his header finds the wrong side of the near post.

    Better from the visitors, though.

  13. Hughes looks to Hyltonpublished at 19:08

    Celtic 1-0 Ross County

    New Ross County boss John Hughes has switched things up at half time, bringing on Jermaine Hylton for Michael Gardyne.

    Can the former Motherwell man help the visitors make more impact in the final third?

  14. United in commandpublished at 35 mins

    Dundee United 2-0 Kilmarnock

    Dundee United have burst into life with two goals in three minutes. Shankland and McNulty are both now on the scoresheet, something that will be hugely encouraging for a side that have found goals hard to come by this season. While the hosts look a side transformed, Kilmarnock now have a mountain to climb if they are to turn this encounter round, and avoid their recent losing run extending to four games.

    Guthrie

    Livingston finally break the deadlock as Jason Holt's ball from the left drops to Jon Guthrie at the back post who heads home with ease.

    He will be a relieved man after that first-half miss!

  17. HALF-TIME - Motherwell 0-0 Aberdeenpublished at 19:04

    It's been a fairly even game at Fir Park, but Aberdeen have had the better of the chances. The best of them was Curtis Main's header, which came back off the crossbar.

    Marc McNulty was brought to Dundee United to score goals, that is his first for the club, and it had quality written all over it. Micky Mellon will be hoping that can now set him off along the scoring trail.

  19. Saints call for May & McCannpublished at 19:02

    St Johnstone 0-3 Rangers

    St Johnstone made two changes at the break with Stevie May and Ali McCann coming on at half-time, with Murray Davidson and Craig Conway making way.

    Seconds after the restart, the hosts fall three goals behind...
