  1. FULL-TIME Hibernian 0-1 St Johnstonepublished at 16:51 GMT 3 November 2018

  2. FULL-TIME Celtic 5-0 Heart of Midlothianpublished at 16:51 GMT 3 November 2018

    Celtic, having struggled badly for goals in their opening seven matches, have scored 13 in three this week.

    Leaders Hearts were never in this game, Odsonne Edouard scoring either side of a Filip Benkovic header in the first half before James Forrest and Ryan Christie completed the rout in the second.

    The result means Celtic are just one point behind Hearts at the top - and with a game in hand.

    Christie shows great confidence to go up and take the penalty and get himself on the score sheet. Great trickery, movement and technical ability from the team allowed Forrest the opportunity to win the penalty

    Hamilton Academical 1-0 Livingston

    Livingston go so close to an immediate equaliser, but Steven Lawless' drive strikes the crossbar.

    Motherwell 1-0 Dundee

    Chris Cadden with a chance to wrap it up for Motherwell... No! The midfielder has loads of time to pick his spot but shoots over.

    GOAL Hibernian 0-1 St Johnstonepublished at 16:46 GMT 3 November 2018

    Joe Shaughnessy

    With a minute remaining, St Johnstone have surely struck the killer blow!

    David Wotherspoon sends in a free-kick from the left angle of the box, and captain Joe Shaughnessy stoops to power a header into the Hibs net.

    It looks like a fourth Premiership win on the bounce for Tommy Wright's men.

    Penalty to Celtic as James Forrest is brought down...

  9. CLOSE!published at 16:45 GMT 3 November 2018

    Hibernian 0-0 St Johnstone

    This really could go either way as we enter the final seven minutes.

    Lewis Stevenson has space to hang a teasing cross up at the back post, where Jamie Maclaren is lurking but sends his header looping narrowly over.

    GOAL Hamilton Academical 1-0 Livingstonpublished at 16:44 GMT 3 November 2018

    Mason Bloomfield

    It's a bit of a smash and grab for Accies. Livingston looked the more likely to find a winner, but Mason Bloomfield races clear of his marker and fires the ball under Liam Kelly.

    Hearts have to lift themselves after this - they're still at the top of the league and they'll need to try and get this game out of their system. This Hearts team are different proposition at Tynecastle. This result also helps the teams behind Celtic. Rangers will be happy and so will be Kilmarnock

    Dundee United are on their way to a good win at home to Queens, their second coming from a Scott Mercer own goal.

    Hibernian 0-0 St Johnstone

    Big chance for Saints to win it.

    Ross Callachan collects a bouncing ball with his back to goal and manages to spin and get a half-volley away. It's straight at goalkeeper Adam Bogdan though.

  14. No respite for Thistlepublished at 16:39 GMT 3 November 2018

    Greenock Morton 5-1 Partick Thistle

    It turns out it was one bulb that burst at Cappielow, the glass has been cleared and the game is under way again.

    That's bad news for Thistle, who remain on their way to a thumping.

    Celtic are back to their best, simple as that. They are in cruise control. Hearts simply unable to lay a glove.

    Dunfermline's title hopes have been fast disappearing in recent weeks - and they have found Alloa a tough nut to crack already this season - but Jackson Longridge gives the visitors the lead.

  18. ouch!

    Game in danger?published at 16:34 GMT 3 November 2018

    Greenock Morton 5-1 Partick Thistle

    The game comes to a halt at Cappielow, where it appears that a floodlight might have blown above the stand.

    The players and others are sweeping glass off the side of the pitch!

    But will it restart?

    Michael Tidser

    Michael Tidser had just been overtaken as Morton top scorer this season but catches up almost immediately.

    It's turning into a nightmare afternoon for Thistle.

  20. Turnbull torpedo a rare flash of brilliancepublished at 16:30 GMT 3 November 2018

    Motherwell 1-0 Dundee

    Alasdair Lamont
    BBC Sport Scotland at Fir Park

    Motherwell had looked the likelier side in this second half, but time and again poor finishing and decision-making had cost them.

    Not so as David Turnbull hammers the ball past Jack Hamilton from 30 yards.

    Dundee’s quest for a second clean sheet of the season hasn’t been aided by Darren O’Dea’s departure through injury - and now they’re on course for a fifth successive defeat.
