Rangers starting to press for a second goal. A ball from the right is pulled back for Connor Barron but his whipped effort sails over the bar.

Hearts are dominating possession but are finding it difficult to break down a Kilmarnock defence who look quite content in keeping the home side at bay.

There is no doubt Hearts don’t have the sharpness they possessed a few weeks ago but they still look dangerous when in in the opponents final third.

Alfredo Agyeman goes close again.

A quick free-kick catches Motherwell cold, and the forward peels off his man at the near post. The visitors recover just in time to deflect the effort wide.

Such is Celtic's faith in Daizen Maeda right now, they were prepared to wait some time for him to return from getting treatment.

He's now sporting a bandage around his head not dissimilar to that famous image of former Rangers defender Terry Butcher for England an age ago.

He's got a bit more pace though.

Alexander Jensen has open space in front of him to drive into, but the Aberdeen wing-back dallies and allows the St Mirren defence to get back.

Reo Hatate dinks a cross into the Dundee box and into the path of Arne Engels, who leaps up for the header but nods just wide of the target.

And here comes Daizen Maeda back onto the pitch to much applause from the home support. The Celtic forward is sporting a head bandage and already has a corker of a black eye.

Dundee United have started to sit back and they're looking very frail defensively.

Rangers look delighted at the space they're being given, and they're starting to pepper the United box with crosses and shots.

A few desperate headers and blocks have saved them - so far.

Early days, but Motherwell are missing Elliot Watt. The Lanarkshire side are struggling to build much from the back, and their play is lacking it's usual dynamism.

Falkirk with the best of it so far.

Celtic goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel is now on the floor holding his ankle after a coming together with Finlay Robertson.

He'll be fine but Celtic are still playing with 10 as Daizen Maeda hasn't returned to the action after scoring.

Pierre Landry Kabore gets in behind and takes a touch past Killie keeper Tobi Oluwayemi before laying back to Lawrence Shankland at a tight angle.

The Hearts captain looks to loft one in first time, but the visiting goalie recovers.

A brilliant save from Dave Richards maintains United's lead.

It's a Rangers cross from the left which evades the home defence. Bojan Miovski flicks on, but Richards reads it brilliantly and palms away.

Pace, anticipation, bravery, that was a very good goal for Celtic.

Daizen Maeda showed all of that as did his team-mates to create that opening.

Maeda took a sore one as he thumped home his header but he looks like he's back to the kind of level Celtic need him to be.

Exactly what Dundee didn't need.

United almost make it 2-0.

It's another good ball in from the right, but this time it's Nikolaj Moller who is picked out. The Swede flicks on, but his header bounces just wide.

Aberdeen should be in front.

Topi Keskinen fires a shot from the edge of the box off the post with St Mirren goalkeeper Shamal George rooted to the spot.

The hosts recycle and the unmarked Adil Aouchiche heads straight at George.

It's been a bright start from Pierre Landry Kabore, who has forced a booking for defender Robbie Deas, and was close to getting a dangerous shot away there.

The forward coming back into the Hearts side will be looking to make a statement.

Now Rangers get forward after Pan Camara gives the ball away. There's a cross from the right that's knocked down in the penalty area, but Camara is back to clear away in the nick of time.
