'Clinical Celtic, desperate Dundee'

Jane Lewis

BBC Scotland at Celtic Park

Almost the perfect night for Celtic... Losing a goal will probably be a tad frustrating, but it was their only error all night.

The starting 11 showed the kind of intent that's been missing in recent games, while those coming off the bench played their part too.

It's a sore one for Dundee that's for sure, recovering from that pounding won't be easy. Tony Docherty will have to rally his troops.

'A hugely significant win for Rangers'

Kheredine Idessane

BBC Scotland at Rugby Park

What a terrific game this was in awful monsoon-like conditions. Credit to both sets of players and managers.

This feels like a hugely significant win for Rangers, who were largely second-best in a first half in which Kilmarnock's energy and work-rate were rewarded with a fine penalty conversion by the ever-excellent Danny Armstrong.

How the home side will look back with huge regret on a massive early second half chance for Matty Kennedy, whose effort was superbly saved by Jack Butland.

A much more energetic second half from the visitors, who brought on Dessers and Yilmaz at half-time at the expense of Silva and Barisic , brought about quite the turnaround, with two good goals in the space of four minutes.

How often has a James Tavernier free-kick revitalised Rangers?

The tone of the game changed in an instant, as Rangers scented blood. Sure enough, as Killie failed to clear, Tom Lawrence arrowed a shot into the bottom corner.

On a night when Celtic were cruising to three points at home to Dundee, this hard-fought win will feel all the sweeter for Rangers.

FULL-TIME Hearts 1-1 Hibernian

That will very much feel like two points dropped for Hibs, who passed up a load of clear-cut chances at Tynecastle.

Their wait for a win in Gorgie goes on. Not since Boxing Day 2019 have they managed it.

Hibs stay 21 points behind their city rivals as they edge one point behind sixth-placed Dundee.

With Kilmarnock losing, Hearts extend their advantage in third place to 12 points.

GOAL Livingston 1-3 Motherwell

That should surely do it?

Jack Vale lays off Theo Bair who returns the favour and fires the ball back to the midfielder. He makes no mistake and heads it beyond Michael McGovern in the Livingston goal.

BBC

Motherwell are having to put in some serious defensive work in these closing stages.

Livingston have a corner and it's whipped into the box but Liam Kelly does well to catch it.

FULL-TIME Celtic 7-1 Dundee

Celtic eased off slightly in the second half since this game was over as a contest at the interval.

Brendan Rodgers' side were much-improved from Sunday's showing against Motherwell and absolutely blew Dundee away with six first-half goals.

Daniel Kelly came off the bench to score his first senior goal, before Michael Mellon pulled one back for the visitors, who had Finlay Robertson sent off for two yellow cards.

Celtic remain two points behind Rangers but have given their goal difference a healthy boost

It felt like there was another goal in this one, but it's fizzling out a bit.

Is there a late, late twist to come, though?

FULL-TIME Aberdeen 0-2 St Johnstone

St Johnstone end a four-game losing streak with a deserved victory at Pittodrie.

Nicky Clark's penalty put the visitors ahead at the break before Benjamin Kimpioka's breakaway goal gave the Saints a comfortable cushion.

Craig Levein's side now sit level with Aberdeen in the league on 27 points, behind only on goal difference.

Neil Warnock's wait for a league win goes on...

Both sides sit just four points above the relegation play-off spot, but remain only five points off the top six.

FULL-TIME Kilmarnock 1-2 Rangers

Three massive points for Rangers. They stay top of the Premiership. And boy did they have to scrap for it.

Trailing to Danny Armstrong's penalty as Celtic built a huge lead against Dundee, four second-half minutes turned the game on its head.

James Tavernier walloped a free-kick into the top corner, before Tom Lawrence - whose contribution to both goals was significant - rattled a first-time shot low past Will Dennis.

A serious test of Rangers' title credentials, and they've delivered with the pressure on. The two-point gap at the summit remains.

Kyogo looks poised to tap home an eighth for Celtic, but Trevor Carson spreads himself well to make the save.

'Steelmen punish jittery hosts'

Andy Burke

BBC Scotland at Almondvale Stadium

That was a beauty from Blair Spittal and Motherwell will feel they deserve the lead. They are the side who have been pushing and Livingston have retreated into themselves since taking that early lead.

The home fans are really frustrated with what they're seeing from their side. I'm not sure if the plan was to defend that lead but clearly that has not panned out and they need to find something to avoid another damaging defeat here.

Blair Spittal knocked in his 11th goal of the season

A pause to check a possible penalty for Rangers...

Nope, play on.

HITS THE WOODWORK

Hibs should really have three points in the bag.

Jordan Obita smashes one off the outside of the near post from a tight angle.

GOAL Celtic 7-1 Dundee

Dundee finally have something to shout about as Michael Mellon scores a late consolation.

A very tidy finish too, crashing in a volley from a looping cross.

BBC

RED CARD Finlay Robertson

Dundee's evening goes from bad to worse as Finlay Robertson is sent off for a second bookable offence.

'Final roll of the dice from Kilmarnock'

Kheredine Idessane

BBC Scotland at Rugby Park

For the last few minutes, Watson, McKenzie and Balagizi join the fray for Kilmarnock as they try to force an equaliser. Both managers have now thrown on five subs each in this half.

Killie were screaming for a second penalty a few minutes ago, but VAR in the background must have been happy that no foul had taken place. Derek McInnes didn't look too happy however.

GOAL Livingston 1-2 Motherwell

What a strike Blair Spittal!

He absolutely rifles the ball into the back of the net to give Motherwell the lead.

BBC

HITS THE WOODWORK

Oh so nearly eight for Celtic.

Luis Palma cuts inside onto his left foot, but sees his curling effort clip the bar on its way behind for a Dundee goal kick.

'Dismal night for Dons'

Tyrone Smith

BBC Sport Scotland at Pittodrie

That appears to be game over... The ball over the top to Benjamin Kimpioka has caused Aberdeen problems all night. They just haven't been able to deal with that threat.

Home fans are making for the exits.
