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

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.

Pat Bonner
Former Celtic goalkeeper on BBC SportsoundQuote MessageHearts 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

Alasdair Lamont
BBC Sport Scotland at Fir ParkMotherwell 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.
