Celtic and Rangers both earned three points and kept clean sheets with victories over St Mirren and St Johnstone respectively. It keeps the gap at the top of the table to three points.
The bigger story involving the Glasgow giants is the fan reaction to their controversial friendly tournament in Australia in the Sydney Super Cup with banners at McDiarmid Park and Celtic Park.
At the bottom of the table, Saints’ draw allowed Dundee to pull one point closer with a draw with ten-man Hibs at Dens Park. In turn, two dropped points from the Hibees meant Livingston stormed into fourth place with a 2-1 success over Dundee United at the Tony Macaroni Arena.
Livi are just one of three teams in the league on a two-game winning streak. Hearts strengthened their hold on third-place with a comfortable and confident 2-0 success over Aberdeen. The gap to fourth now stands at 12 points.
The other team to win two successive games is Ross County. Their win at Motherwell saw them into eighth, just two points off the top six.
Aberdeen are now the team in tenth and have lots of work to do to get into the top six with just four games until the split.
