All the teams from third to seventh failed to win with Dundee United squeezing into the top six courtesy of a draw. There were big wins fro Ross County, Livingston and St Mirren who are all now looking upwards to sixth or even fourth.
At the bottom, Dundee’s troubles continue while St Johnstone edged away from their rivals by a point.
On Friday in the Championship, Arbroath recorded a momentous win, defeating Kilmarnock 1-0 to extend their league at the top with Morton’s rise continuting under Dougie Imrie with a 1-0 success at Inverness.
In the SWPL, there were big wins for Rangers over Glasgow City at the top and Aberdeen, Hearts and Partick Thistle.
