Sports Mole rounds up the action from this afternoon's Scottish Premier League.

Motherwell consolidated second second spot as Dundee fell to another comprehensive defeat in the Scottish Premier League.

Nicky Law helped himself to a rare double and the prolific Michael Higdon struck his 22nd goal of the season to hand Stuart McCall's side a 3-0 victory.

Inverness Caledonian Thistle did keep up the pressure, though, as they won 2-1 at Hibernian.

It was a bad day for the Edinburgh clubs as Niall McGinn scored a brace in Aberdeen's 2-0 victory over Hearts.

James Fowler's early goal was enough to give Kilmarnock a 1-0 win at Ross County that keeps them in the crucial sixth place spot with just a week to go until the division splits in two.

Results in full: Aberdeen 2-0 Hearts, Dundee 0-3 Motherwell, Hibernian 1-2 Inverness Caledonian Thistle, Ross County 0-1 Kilmarnock
