Arbroath host Kilmarnock in a massive top-of-the-table clash in the Championship, live on BBC, tonight to kick the weekend off with the majority of fixtures on Saturday. In the top-flight the main focus will be on the battle at the bottom. Dundee and St Johnstone are both at home as they take on Ross County and Dundee United respectively. Wins for both would see the gap between the bottom three cut from five to two points.
On Sunday, it is all about the title race and European battle with the top four all in action. Rangers host third-place Hearts in a bid to bounce back from the midweek loss to rivals Celtic at Parkhead. The new league leaders, meanwhile, travel to Fir Park to take on Motherwell. Both games are live on Sky Sports.
Only a couple of days later and there is another full midweek Premiership fixture card – the fourth in a row – before the fifth round of the Scottish Cuo.
Meanwhile, the David Goodwillie story took another turn on Thursday as pressure mounted on Raith Rovers following their decision to sign a player who found to have raped a women by a civil court case.
