What a performance from Callum Davidson's side as they record their first win in four.

Nicky Clark, who only arrived from Dundee United this week, stabbed them ahead in the first half.

Drey Wright doubled the advantage after the break and Graham Carey scored a late third from the penalty spot.

St Mirren miss out on the opportunity to record four consecutive top flight wins for the first time since 2008.

Davidson’s side jump to ninth in the table with their second win of the season.

Motherwell are leaving the Fir Park pitch wondering how they haven't won this game.

Kevin van Veen had a penalty saved, hit the bar, passed up a headed chance from six yards - and there were others.

United didn't offer much in attack, but it's a welcome clean sheet after last week's hammering by Celtic.

There's been plenty of substitutes as this game fizzles out - although a Kilmarnock goal would liven things up.

Hibs have looked to Momodou Bojang to find a goal that will kill the game off. He's on and... he's clear through! The striker must score! One on one! And he rolls it into the goalkeeper's hands. Ooft.

Alan Forrest has to do much better after getting into the box for Hearts, but the winger hits a shot off a defender and it's an easy save for goalkeeper Shamal George.

A shot! On target too!

Aberdeen winger Matty Kennedy drops a shoulder, cuts inside off the left, and stings the palms of goalkeeper Ross Laidlaw.

Ross County midfielder Jordan Tillson has just seen his shot from distance go out for a throw-in.

Sums it up.

Kevin van Veen. Well, it's just not been the Motherwell striker's day. He turns and shoots towards an empty goal, but defender Ryan Edwards makes an outstanding block to turn the ball wide of the goal.

A St Mirren corner lands in the box, with Jonah Ayunga diving in at the face of Remi Matthews with his studs up.

The goalkeeper and the striker both know it was an accident, but centre-half Declan Gallagher comes charging in and gets a booking for his involvement.

Ayunga also picks up a booking for his studs being up as he lunged in.

Superb play down the left from Hibs.

Jake Doyle-Hayes plays Joe Newell down the wing with a cute backheel, the midfielder picks out Elie Youan in the middle, but the striker gets his first-time shot all wrong.

Motherwell substitute Stuart McKinstry fires a ball into the six-yard box that Dundee United goalkeeper Carljohan Eriksson has to turn over the bar after a deflection off Charlie Mulgrew.

Livingston midfielder Scott Pittman cuts inside and rifles a shot at goal that goalkeeper Craig Gordon has to tip over the bar.

The home side continue to search for a second goal.

Ryan Porteous and Kyle Lafferty clash again just moments after their previous.

Porteous was bringing the ball out of Hibs' defence, Lafferty closes him down and the centre-half moves an arm out to hold off the striker. Lafferty goes down holding his face and Porteous stands over the 'stricken' Northern Ireland international. They're both booked.

Embarrassing from both.

St Mirren hit the woodwork - twice!

A Scott Tanser header back across goal crashes off the bar before Jonah Ayunga cracks the post on the follow up.

It juts isn't falling for St Mirren right now.

Hibs winger Martin Boyle is fouled right on the corner of the box. Nothing given.

Kilmarnock wait to boot the ball up the pitch - but Kyle Lafferty and Chris Cadden tangle, with the latter thrown to the floor. There's Hibs centre-half Ryan Porteous in among the action, shoving Lafferty right back. Referee John Beaton keeps his cards in his pocket.

Livingston substitute Kurtis Guthrie almost scores with a cheeky backheel and it takes a fine one-handed save from Craig Gordon to deny the striker who arrived from RoundGlass Punjab this week.
