Kilmarnock 0-1 St Mirren
Can someone let us fans know where this “proper” attacking football Neil McCann preaches is? Because it certainly isn’t on the pitch. We’re making St Mirren look like Pep’s Barcelona.

Alex Lowry
He's been outstanding again and deserves his goal, Alex Lowry.
It's lovely play just in front of the United penalty area once again. Lowry receives the ball, slows things down, and unleashes a wicked strike that almost bursts the net.
Goalkeeper Jack Walton had no chance with that one.

Motherwell 1-0 Dundee United
And now it's Motherwell's turn to alter things.
The home fans at Fir Park get their first glimpse of new signing Dylan Levitt, who comes on for a debut. Eythor Bjorgolfsson is also introduced.
Lukas Fadinger and Seb Palmer-Houldon make way.

Dundee 0-0 St Johnstone
Best chance of the game by a long shot.
Joe Westley is played clean through on goal as St Johnstone try to lay an offside trap in vain.
He should find the bottom corner. Instead he curls it wide.
Massive chance. No wonder he can't believe it, nor can his manager Steven Pressley.
Game warming up at least.
Kilmarnock 0-1 St Mirren
More good play on the right between Calvin Ramsay and Fraser Taylor ends in a good cross from the latter.
Nikolas Agrafiotis stretches but it's not a good contact and ends in nothing.
Celtic 3-0 Aberdeen
Image source, SNSWhat does four changes at half-time say about Aberdeen and Stephen Robinson as manager? Clueless!
Rob
Aberdeen hire coaches who can’t coach or set up a team. We don’t hunt in twos like Celtic to win the ball back. We’re walking. A disgrace.

Motherwell 1-0 Dundee United
Just short of an hour gone at Fir Park.
Dundee United assistant Lee Sharp makes more changes.
Lachlan Rose and Neil Farrugia are on and Zach Sapsford is off with Daniel Bennie.
Celtic 3-0 Aberdeen
Nobody in green and white seems to want to get a shot away.
Benjamin Nygren, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Yang Hyun-jun pass it around the edge of the Aberdeen box before captain Callum McGregor attempts a strike.
It's comfortably wide of the post though.
Kilmarnock 0-1 St Mirren
Michael Schjonning-Larsen skips inside from 30 yards and tries a shot, but it skims off the surface and is easy enough for Jacob Chapman to gather in the St Mirren goal.
A sign of encouragement, at least, for Killie fans.
Celtic 3-0 Aberdeen
Five goals in seven games for Benjamin Nygren this season.
Six goals in eight games for Camilo Duran.
And you wouldn't put it past the Celtic duo adding to that before the night is over.

Lukas Fadinger comes close again.
He pounces on a United clearance and the midfielder's strike deflects off the head of Bert Esselink before hitting a post.
Kilmarnock 0-1 St Mirren
Djenairo Daniels goes down on the edge of the box as he challenges for a long ball forward.
If it's a foul, it's a red card for St Mirren...
But referee David Dickinson doesn't give it.
Celtic 3-0 Aberdeen
A quadruple change for the Dons at the break.
Toyosi Olusanya, Mitchy Ntelo, Lewis Smith and Connor Ronan are on, Kevin Nisbet, Ayoub Mouloua, Afeez Aremu and Alex Briedl make way.
Motherwell 1-0 Dundee United
Changes each way at Fir Park for the second half.
For Motherwell, Jamie Knight-Lebel is off and Jake Girdwood-Reich replaces him.
Jesse Randall replaces Mehdi Merghem for United.
All square at the break.
Lawrence Shankland gave Rangers an early lead and the visitors have just about been the better side, but Falkirk equalised on the verge of half-time thanks to Kosta Nedeljkovic's own goal.
Image source, SNSKilmarnock 0-1 St Mirren
Three changes at the break for Kilmarnock. Neil McCann not too happy as Erik Ring, Johnly Yfeko and Tyreece John-Jules are all hooked.
Jamie Brandon, Djenairo Daniels and Aaron Tshibola are on in their place.
Celtic 3-0 Aberdeen
Just the 26 seconds between Gavin Molloy hitting the bar and Yang Hyun-jun hitting the back of the net.
Sliding doors etc etc.

Nedeljkovic (own goal)
The Bairns hit back.
Cammy Devlin gives away possession far too easily and Falkirk pounce. Ethan Ross skins Olwethu Makhanya down the right and gets his cross into the middle.
It doesn't look too threatening, but Kosta Nedeljkovic slides in and puts it past Ivor Pandur and into his own net.
Rangers thought there might have been a foul on Emmanuel Fernandez off the ball, but the goal stands.
HT: Motherwell 1-0 Dundee United

BBC Sport Scotland at Fir Park
Aye, that's just about right.
Utter domination from Motherwell, as this Opta momentum graph shows.
They will be desperate to add to their advantage, you'd imagine...
