- Aberdeen remain second but are winless in four
- Rangers have only won twice on the road this season

Celtic will look to maintain their lead at the top of the Scottish Premiership and extend their unbeaten run to 14 matches when they face Hibernian this weekend.

Second-placed Aberdeen entertain St Johnstone, while Sunday's only game sees Rangers travel to Ross County.

Tom Hill has correct score picks for all six Scottish Premiership matches.

Aberdeen vs St Johnstone (Saturday, 3pm)

After four games without a win, Aberdeen will look to return to winning ways when they take on St Johnstone at Pittodrie.

Publicidad

The Dons were beaten 1-0 by Celtic during the week, but they had won 11 straight games at home before that defeat.

St Johnstone have lost four of their last five, while they have only won one of their previous eight on the road in all competitions.

Score prediction: Aberdeen 2-0 St Johnstone

Celtic vs Hibernian (Saturday, 3pm)

Brendan Rodgers' side already have a healthy advantage at the top of the table, with the Hoops seven points clear and with a game in hand over second-placed Aberdeen.

Celtic are unbeaten in 13 games ahead of their clash with Hibernian, who ended a nine-match winless run by beating Motherwell 3-0 last weekend.

Publicidad

However, that was Hibs' first away win of the season, so they should struggle at Celtic Park.

Score prediction: Celtic 3-0 Hibernian

Dundee United vs Kilmarnock (Saturday, 3pm)

Dundee United have a 10-point cushion over Kilmarnock ahead of Saturday's encounter.

Jim Goodwin's men are unbeaten in four, winning two of those games and keeping two clean sheets in the process.

Kilmarnock have only scored one goal in their last four league games and shipped six against Rangers last time out, so they should struggle on the road.

Score prediction: Dundee United 2-0 Kilmarnock

Hearts vs Dundee (Saturday, 3pm)

Hearts continue to prop up the rest of the Scottish Premiership as they prepare to host Dundee this weekend.

The Jam Tarts have only collected 10 points from 15 games, while Dundee have lost just one of their last five in the league.

However, Hearts have only lost three times at home in the league and they face a Dundee side that have triumphed just once on the road across their last eight games.

Score prediction: Hearts 1-1 Dundee

Neil Critchley's Hearts head into the weekend sitting bottom of the Scottish Premiership standings

St Mirren vs Motherwell (Saturday, 3pm)

St Mirren's four-match unbeaten run was ended by Dundee United last weekend as they fell to a 2-0 defeat on the road.

Publicidad

A return to the SMISA Stadium should help them get back to winning ways this week, though, with Motherwell losing four of their last five in all competitions.

Score prediction: St Mirren 2-1 Motherwell

Ross County vs Rangers (Sunday, 12pm)

Philippe Clement's Rangers have rediscovered their form in recent weeks and are now unbeaten in seven ahead of their meeting with Ross County.

Goals have been tough to come by for the hosts, with Don Cowie's men scoring in just one of their last five matches.

Rangers have scored 11 goals across their last three games in all competitions, so expect the Gers to pick up a comfortable three points on the road.

Score prediction: Ross County 0-3 Rangers
