Unplayable Celtic man, Hearts terrier, improved Rangers ace - Scottish Premiership team of the week gallery

It was another weekend of big results in the Scottish Premiership, as the Celtic juggernaut continued with the league leaders going four points clear at the top of the league after blowing away Ross County 5-0 at Celtic Park.

Second placed Aberdeen hiccupped for the second week in a row though, with their 1-1 draw with struggling Hearts meaning they fell further behind in the title race. Gorgie head coach Neil Critchley will be pleased with side’s display at Tynecastle, but the draw sees them fall to the bottom of the table after Edinburgh rivals Hibs dismantled Motherwell at Fir Park, picking up just their second win of the season as they ran out comfortable 3-0 winners.

Elsewhere, Rangers kept the pressure on Aberdeen in second as they moved to within seven points of the Dons with a toiling 1-0 win at St Johnstone, while a late Kilmarnock goal helped them rescue a 1-1 draw at home to Dundee. Elsewhere, Jim Goodwin’s Dundee United moved four points clear in fourth with an impressive 2-0 win over St Mirren.
