    Celtic 3-0 Ross County

    Jota continues to cause havoc for the County defence.

    The winger fires just over the crossbar after a jinking run, then his low cross is hacked clear by a visiting boot with striker Giorgos Giakoumakis a toe poke away from a hat-trick.

    Heart of Midlothian 1-0 Livingston

    Another big chance for Hearts but Nathan Atkinson can't quite get the ball from under his feet with Livingston cut open, and the defence manage to clear for a corner, from which Craig Halkett heads into the goalkeeper's hands.

  3. Rogic & Hungbo off at Celtic Parkpublished at 15:40 Greenwich Mean Time 19 March 2022

    Celtic 3-0 Ross County

    That red card incident forces both sides into changes.

    Tom Rogic, the victim of Kayne Ramsay's challenge, is forced off through injury, with Matt O'Riley coming into Celtic's midfield.

    Visiting manager Malky Mackay takes off winger Joseph Hungbo and replaces him with Keith Watson, the defender who has just returned to the bench following injury. Damage limitation is on the agenda for the depleted visitors.

    St Mirren 1-0 Dundee United

    It wouldn't be an Eamonn Brophy performance without an ambitious shot from 25 yards out.

    The St Mirren forward has his first effort of the afternoon, deflecting and flashing just wide on Benji Siegrist's post.

    Heart of Midlothian 1-0 Livingston

    There is concern for Beni Baningime, who hurdled a challenge and landed really awkwardly.

    He's been down for some time receiving treatment but you can see by his face how much pain he is in, and manager Robbie Neilson has signalled to his bench to make a change. In Hearts last league game away to Dundee United, they lost five players due to injuries.

    Alex Cochrane will come on Baningime, whose goal separates the sides.

  7. PENALTY TO ABERDEENpublished at 15:37 Greenwich Mean Time 19 March 2022

    Aberdeen 0-1 Hibernian

    Handball from Rocky Bushiri. The Hibs defender is very unlucky there as the ball bounces up on to his arm following a deflected Connor Barron shot.

    Aberdeen 0-1 Hibernian

    Aberdeen cannot seem to get out of their own half since losing that opening goal.

    Hibs are keeping the pressure on with a high press and winning set pieces.

    St Johnstone 1-1 Motherwell

    Some sustained Motherwell possession sees them flight in a few crosses in quick succession, with goalkeeper Zander Clark managing to deal with them all.

    A small shout for a Motherwell penalty as Kevin van Veen gestures to the referee his shirt was being tugged but the free-kick goes against the Motherwell striker.

  11. RED CARDpublished at 15:32 Greenwich Mean Time 19 March 2022

    Celtic 3-0 Ross County

    A bad day gets worse for County as on-loan Southampton defender Kayne Ramsay is sent packing for a reckless challenge on Celtic midfielder Tom Rogic.

    A crazy challenge considering there was no immediate danger, just inside the home half.

    Daizen Maeda

    County are on their way to an old-fashioned doing!

    Two great saves in quick succession from Ross Laidlaw deny Daizen Maeda and Callum McGregor.

    But, from the corner, two-goal Giorgos Giakoumakis heads into the six-yard box, where Maeda wrong foots the goalkeeper.

    St Mirren 1-0 Dundee United

    Two chances in quick succession for United. Marc McNulty has the first, dragging a shot across goal from wide on the right.

    Then Ilmari Niskanen is played through, but Jak Alnwick closes down quickly to deny the Finn, who can't connect properly.

  15. PENALTY APPEALpublished at 15:27 Greenwich Mean Time 19 March 2022

    Heart of Midlothian 1-0 Livingston

    Hearts' Aaron McEneff claims for a penalty as he tries to control the ball and falls to the deck, but it looks like the defender won the ball and referee Euan Anderson - who was well placed - waves plays on.

    The home side are playing some good football and visiting boss David Martindale is furious at the time and space they are being allowed on the ball.

    Callum Hendry

    Melker Hallberg floats in an enticing cross after receiving a long diagonal pass.

    Callum Hendry has a lot of work to do as he races across his man to glance it goalward from the edge of the six-yard box.

    St Mirren 1-0 Dundee United

    St Mirren goalscorer Jay Henderson is causing real bother on that right-hand side and he skips by Scott McMann who hauls him to the floor and goes into the book.

    Stephen Robinson's side aren't missing Jordan Jones at all this afternoon.

    Calvin Ramsey, own goal

    Hibernian have the lead and it's a nightmare for Calvin Ramsay. Chris Cadden crosses deep from the right and Ramsay, with a man on his blind side, knocks past his own goalkeeper.

    Giorgos Giakoumakis

    Shortly after his 10th goal of the season, Giorgos Giakoumakis adds another.

    Jota's cross to the back post is headed back into the six-yard box by Daizen Maeda, the Greek's first attempt is cleared off the line by Jack Baldwin, but the striker dives to direct his second header into the unguarded far corner.

    A long way back for the visitors now - even to avoid a bit of a thumping.
