"The big question is whether Rangers - who are home to Kilmarnock - and Celtic, who are away to Aberdeen, can capitalise on Heart of Midlothian's slip up at St Mirren. Motherwell will hope to close the game on the Old Firm in the event they drop points with their trip to Dundee. Elsewhere, Marvin Bartley takes charge of Livingston for the first time and Hibernian continue life without Kieron Bowie against Dundee United."
"A battle of the interim managers. So much has changed for both clubs since the Scottish Cup final that it's almost hard to believe that was just eight months ago. Both sides have new managers - in Celtic's case they have appointed and rejected an additional boss in that time too of course - and lots of new players. So there will be a very different look on and off the pitch to the showpiece game at Hampden Park last May."
A full round of midweek Scottish Premiership fixtures places Rangers at home to Kilmarnock and Celtic away to Aberdeen, with both clubs able to capitalise after Heart of Midlothian's slip. Motherwell can close the gap on the Old Firm if either side drops points during their trip to Dundee. Marvin Bartley takes charge of Livingston for the first time, while Hibernian cope without Kieron Bowie at Dundee United. Aberdeen remain under interim Peter Leven with poor results, and Celtic face selection choices as new signings and returning defender Auston Trusty alter options despite key absences.
