FT: Celtic 3-0 Hearts
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers tells BBC Scotland: "The way we played through the press for all three goals was really impressive.
"For the players to come back from the international break and to play with the connection and authority, I was really pleased.
"You see what Daizen Maeda gives the team with that relentless appetite to press. When he's in, you fancy him to score."

FT: Hibernian 3-0 St Johnstone
St Johnstone manager Simo Valakari tells BBC Scotland: "I have no complaints [about the result]. We did not play well enough to get anything out of the match.
"We need to own this defeat and learn from it. We came here to win and to test ourselves and we weren't at a good enough level. There's no point in feeling frustrated or angry because we didn't play well enough.
"We did not ask enough questions from the opponent. When we play like we played it was almost impossible. We made the right decisions but maybe the execution was not there. Yes, I'm frustrated for the players because they want to show they are good players and I know they are good players.
"We have a big, big fight ahead of us."

St Mirren assisstant manager Brian Kerr tells BBC Scotland: "We're delighted.
"I think over the last seven, eight weeks, the performance has always been there, the results haven't quite been there and that's been the frustrating thing for us.
"But to go and get the performance and the result today is very pleasing."
On if his side are targeting another top-six finish, he adds: "Yeah, it's always been there for the start of season.
"We knew how difficult it was, we knew how tight the league was, and the ups and downs results and defeats obviously.
"We'll enjoy tonight, we'll make sure everybody's ready to go next week and we'll concentrate fully on Dundee.
"We concentrate on that game, go and hopefully get the result there and then after that we look at what the next steps are."
FT: Celtic 3-0 Hearts

It was a strange first half because Hearts had Celtic pinned back for the first 15 minutes. Sinisalo made a great save from Neilson, which was critical.
But then Celtic got into their stride and the first goal was exceptional. Right from the back, then McGregor picked the pass for Maeda to finish.
FT: Aberdeen 4-1 Motherwell
Motherwell boss Michael Wimmer tells BBC Scotland: "Aberdeen deserved the win. We started well, went in front, but then Aberdeen were better. We were lucky to go in at half-time at just 2-1 down.
"We started well in the second-half, good in possession, had chances with Tom Sparrow and Luke Armstrong. For 3-1, we defended badly and that was that for us.
"What is not okay for me is the last 15 minutes. We gave up, and I don't like that. It doesn't matter what the result is, we have to fight for 90 minutes."

Celtic were clinical in key moments to simply swat Hearts away and, once again, Daizen Maeda takes the plaudits as another Premiership title closes in.
The fact that there's been hardly a mention of Kyogo Furuhashi since his departure says it all. Maeda has been sensational and his 30 goals tally is quite incredible.
Talks on a new deal might be accelerated as there are bound to be admirers given the qualities he has.
Hearts were impressive early on but after being ripped apart by three excellent goals, it was more about regrouping and avoiding a damaging scoreline. They did and now have two big, big games ahead.

Hibs wrap up their top-six place with a comfortable victory.
That's now 15 Premiership games unbeaten for David Gray's side, with Junior Hoilett, Martin Boyle and Kieron Bowie on target.
St Johnstone were poor and this is a setback in their fight for survival as they remain five points adrift of Dundee, who host Rangers in half an hour.

Given their start to the season, it seems mad that Aberdeen have only just clinched their top six place in late March - but they've done just that today.
They had to work for it after going behind early on to Callum Slattery's header, but they reacted brilliantly to level quickly through Alfie Dorrington.
It was soon 2-1 to the hosts thanks to Leighton Clarkson's superb curled strike, and the game was wrapped up thanks to Kevin Nisbet's second-half double - the second of which was one of the finest strikes this season.
The controversy came from Papa Gueye's first-half tackle. Should the Senegalese striker have stayed on the pitch? He did, winning the corner that resulted in Aberdeen's second.

A marauding run out of defence from Rocky Bushiri sets up a chance for Kieron Bowie, who is clipped as he cuts inside.
Three and easy for Celtic, who move 16 points clear at the top.
Two for Daizen Maeda and one from Jota had the league leaders three up at the break. A quiet second half had the feel of a training session.
Hearts stay in sixth despite the defeat.

A terrific, rampant display from St Mirren as they demolish Kilmarnock and keep their top-six hopes alive.
A double from Caolan Boyd-Munce, a Roland Idowu penalty, and two terrific strikes from Declan John and Mark O'Hara were all goals of real quality for the hosts who were impressive across the park in difficult conditions.

A Caolan Boyd-Munce double helped St Mirren blow Kilmarnock away and keep alive their hopes of a top-six finish in the Scottish Premiership.
Stephen Robinson's side were 2-0 ahead inside nine minutes after Boyd-Munce scored from distance and Roland Idowu rolled in a penalty.
The wind and rain played their part in the game and St Mirren took full advantage with the wind behind in the first-half.
With most people at the SMiSA Stadium expecting a response from Kilmarnock in the second half, it was St Mirren who added to their lead, Boyd-Munce drilling in his second and Mark O' Hara adding a fourth from the edge of the box.
The home fans were in dreamland when Declan John fired home a fifth, with Bruce Anderson's late penalty little consolation for the away side.
Little surprise that St Mirren assistant manager Brian Kerr stated: "We're delighted.
"I think, over the last seven, eight weeks, the performance has always been there, the results haven't quite been there and that's been the frustrating thing for us.
"But to go and get the performance and the result today is very pleasing."
The Saints were winless in their previous 11 games against Kilmarnock, but that record did not weigh on them as Boyd-Munce edged them in front. Robbie McCrorie in goal for Killie will feel he should have done better.
Just three minutes later, St Mirren had a chance to double their lead when Lewis Mayo fouled Jonah Ayunga. Idowu stepped up and converted the penalty.
Early in the second half, Richard Taylor should have added a third but somehow contrived to miss from inside the six yard box.
The Paisley side continued to look dangerous and Boyd-Munce lashed home his second of the day after a corner.
O'Hara found himself unmarked at the edge of the box to add a fourth before John beat McCrorie at his near post as St Mirren continue to chase a third consecutive top-six finish.
The win leaves the Paisley side just one point from the top-six with games against Dundee and Ross County to come before the split.
Tough games no doubt, but the manner of the performance will surely give Robinson and his players belief.
They have also ended a poor run against Killie this being the first time they have secured three points against the Ayrshire side since February 2021 - a run of 10 games.
It was a dismal day for Kilmarnock and their sizeable travelling support, struggling from the start and creating little in the game.
A late penalty given for a foul on Joe Wright and converted by Anderson was little comfort for Derek McInnes's side, who have won only two games away from home in the league this season.
With little time left between now and the end of the season, they still are not completely clear of the relegation battle, with six points separating them and bottom-placed St Johnstone.
The challenge ahead for McInnes is to lift his players for the remaining games of the season.
St Mirren assistant manager Brian Kerr: "We don't expect the result to be like that, but we knew the performances were there and we felt that something was going to happen in terms of one of these games.
"We felt that the goals were there and it was just going to click and thankfully it did click and that performance with the goals we managed to score is very, very pleasing."
Kilmarnock manager Derek McInnes: "To be honest, I thought the conditions in the early part of the game we didn't deal with it, two mistakes for the goal, the initial two goals from St Mirren.
"So a really disappointing afternoon, I apologise to the supporters for that, it's not good enough. They should expect better from the team. We expect better."

St. Mirren are winless in their last 10 league meetings with Kilmarnock (D5 L5) since a 2-0 victory in February 2021 under Jim Goodwin.
Kilmarnock are unbeaten in their last five away league games at St. Mirren (W3 D2), keeping a clean sheet four times in this period.
St. Mirren have lost four of their last five home league games (D1), having only lost three of their first 10 such matches in 2024-25 beforehand (W5 D2 L3). It’s the Buddies’ longest winless run at home in the Scottish Premiership since December 2021 (6).
Kilmarnock have won none and lost seven of their last nine away league games (D2), picking up fewer points on the road (9) than any other Scottish Premiership side this season.
Having only scored two goals in his first 35 Scottish Premiership appearances, Killian Phillips has since scored in both of his last two. Should he find the net against Kilmarnock, he will be the first player aged under 23 to score in three successive Scottish Premiership appearances for St. Mirren since Kenny McLean in September 2014.
