Sports Mole provides score predictions for all of Saturday's Scottish Premiership fixtures, including Celtic vs. Livingston.

SPL strugglers Hamilton Academical welcome sixth-placed Dundee United to New Douglas Park on Saturday, having slipped to just a point off the foot of the table.

The Tangerines will arrive buoyed by a rare moment of magic, after Lawrence Shankland's midweek wondergoal earned his side a point against St Johnstone last time out.

We say: Hamilton Academical 0-1 Dundee United


Micky Mellon's team should end their current winless streak with success against the league's leakiest defence on Saturday.

Not only have Hamilton struggled to keep the ball out of the net, but their squad has been bedevilled with injuries in key areas of late, so a reinvigorated Lawrence Shankland could prove the difference for the Tangerines.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a draw or an away win.

Celtic vs. Livingston (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Celtic head into their Scottish Premiership encounter with Livingston on Saturday with pressure mounting on them to close the 21-point gap to rivals Rangers at the top of the table.

The Hoops have lost just two of their last 44 home league games, while Livingston could extend their winning run in the top-flight to seven matches if they were to secure three points this weekend.

We say: Celtic 1-1 Livingston


Celtic are to view each league fixture they face as a must-win if they are to have any hope of narrowing the gap between themselves and Rangers; their clash with an inform Livingston outfit could prove to be a tricky test, especially with a weaker side, which could see the Hoops drop more points on Saturday.

Our tipster partners are predicting a home win.

Hibernian vs. Kilmarnock (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Hibernian host Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday, hoping to secure three points at home for the first time since October.

Jack Ross's men, who have lost both of their last two home league games, face a Killie side that have failed to win any of their last five matches against the Edinburgh outfit.

We say: Hibernian 2-1 Kilmarnock


Despite the hosts winning only one of their last six league matches, Kilmarnock have lost seven top-flight games on the road this season, with only Ross County at the foot of the table suffering more defeats away from home. The quality of attacking duo Doidge and Nisbet could help Hibs secure a narrow victory on Saturday.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.

Ross County vs. Aberdeen (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Ross County host Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday, with both sides hoping to bounce back from league defeats in their previous matches.

The Staggies, who have won just once in their last 16 top-flight matches, face a Dons side that have been victorious in 11 of their 21 league games this campaign.

We say: Ross County 0-2 Aberdeen


Ross County, who have drawn four and lost six of their last 10 home league matches, face an Aberdeen side that have picked up 16 points on their travels this campaign, and the Dons should have enough quality to secure the three points this weekend.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Ninth faces eighth as St Johnstone host St Mirren in the Scottish Premiership on Saturday, with both sides hoping to bounce back from league draws.

The Saints shared the points with Dundee United last time out, while the Buddies came from behind to secure a point at home to Motherwell.

We say: St Johnstone 1-2 St Mirren


St Johnstone have picked up just nine points at home this season, while St Mirren have lost only one of their last five away league outings. Goodwin's side will be hoping to take advantage against the hosts, who are enduring a poor run of form, and we can see them securing all three points away at McDiarmid Park.

Our tipster partners are predicting a double chance bet on a home win or an away win.
