Clive Lindsay

  1. Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Rangers look incapable of responding.

    There's a lack of quality, especially when you consider how much the Glasgow club have paid for some of these new signings.

  2. Killie showing quality

    Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Rory Loy
    Former Rangers forward on BBC Sportsound

    It's strange. You would expect Rangers to have more of the ball, but it is Kilmarnock who have had the better quality.

  3. Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Rangers are pushing for an equaliser, but the bounce of the ball is favouring Kilmarnock.

  4. McKenzie on for Killie

    Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Another change for Kilmarnock.

    On comes long-serving forward Rory McKenzie for Kyle Magennis.

  5. Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Rangers are looking desperate and Sam Lammers tries to divert a Borna Barisic drive towards goal, but it is a few yards wide.

  6. No pitching for excuses

    Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Lee McCulloch
    Former Rangers midfielder & Kilmarnock manager on BBC Sportsound

    From a Rangers perspective, they cannot blame the pitch. It is the same for both teams. Rangers have been laboured in the middle of the pitch and have not had the cutting edge up top

  7. Jack on for Lundstram

    Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Michael Beale makes another change in Rangers' midfield.

    Ryan Jack is on for John Lundstram.

  8. Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Rangers are looking shellshocked as John Souttar and Connor Goldson get into a muddle at the back.

    And Danny Armstrong fires a low drive just wide.

  9. Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Rangers need a goal or two, but it is Kilmarnock who are threatening another.

    Midfielder Kyle Magennis fires a low drive that goalkeeper Jack Butland holds nervously at the second attempt.

  10. Both sides make changes

    Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    As I mentioned, Kieran Dowell has been replaced with fellow former Norwich City midfielder Todd Cantwell.

    Danilo is on for his Rangers debut in place of Cyriel Dessers up front.

    The Brazilian striker needs to get off to a flyer.

    Killie had brought on captain Kyle Vassell in place of Marley Watkins up front and what an immediate impact!

  11. goal

    GOAL Kilmarnock 1-0 Rangers

    Brad Lyons

    Wow!

    Rangers had just made a double substitution in a bid to win the game.

    Now they have to come from behind.

    John Souttar fails to clear from a long throw and midfielder Brad Lyons prods it home from 10 yards.

    Kilmarnock goal

  12. Kilmarnock 0-0 Rangers

    First real chance of the second half for Rangers.

    But midfielder Kieran Dowall's shot is deflected over and, from the cross, the ball flashes across the face of the Kilmarnock goal and wide from a Connor Goldson header.

  13. Kilmarnock 0-0 Rangers

    Kilmarnock remain a threat and Matty Kennedy turns in from the right wing and unleashes a shot from 18 yards, but it is wildly over.

  14. Kilmarnock 0-0 Rangers

    It looks like Rangers manager Michael Beale is preparing a change as midfielder Todd Cantwell starts to strip.

  15. Kilmarnock 0-0 Rangers

    A long range effort from Matty Kennedy is easily held by Rangers goalkeeper Jack Butland, but the visitors are quickly back on the attack.

  16. PENALTY APPEAL

    Kilmarnock 0-0 Rangers

    Rangers captain James Tavernier curls in a corner that is headed wide by John Souttar.

    There looked to be an arm around the waist of fellow defender Connor Goldson, but referee Willie Collum waves away the Englishman's penalty appeal.

  17. Kilmarnock 0-0 Rangers

    John Souttar advances out of the heart of the Rangers defence.

    The Scotland centre-half has plenty of space and unleashes a hugely ambitious dive that is high and wild. Rangers showing frustration already.

  18. Change in Rangers formation

    Kilmarnock 0-0 Rangers

    Lee McCulloch
    Former Rangers midfielder & Kilmarnock manager on BBC Sportsound

    It looks like there might have been a tactical tweak with John Lundstram in a back three

  19. KICK-OFF SECOND HALF

    Kilmarnock 0-0 Rangers

    Rangers get the second half under way.

    No changes from either manager, but visiting boss Michael Beale will have impressed on his new signings the need for victories as they look to keep pace already with champions Celtic.

  20. 'A typical game of Scottish football'

    FT: Livingston 0-0 Aberdeen

    Livingston manager David Martindale tells BBC Scotland: "All across the park, the boys were magnificent.

    "It was a physical game of football played at a decent intensity.

    "I'm really proud of the players. I have a lot of respect for Aberdeen and for Barry [Robson]. Since he took over, they've been brilliant, so we had to compete and match -up and I think we done that incredibly well.

    "To come out of the game with a clean sheet, that's the most pleasing aspect for me."
