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

Celtic welcome St Mirren to a Parkhead on Saturday afternoon for what looks like being an intriguing Scottish Premiership encounter.

While the pressure on Celts manager Neil Lennon has not lifted after a midweek home win over Hamilton Academical, the Paisley Saints bounced back in style from their weekend League Cup semi-final defeat.

We say: Celtic 1-0 St Mirren

While St Mirren will be feeling confident after their midweek demolition of Dundee United, a trip to Parkhead is always a daunting prospect for the Paisley Saints.

We think that Celtic will win, but only narrowly, and a 1-0 scoreline will do little to lift the pressure on Lennon's shoulders.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.

Livingston vs. Aberdeen (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Livingston host Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership on Wednesday evening with both sides currently enjoying good spells of form.

The Lions have a 100% record in the league under new boss David Martindale, while the Dons have lost just three of their 19 top-flight matches this campaign.

We say: Livingston 1-1 Aberdeen

Livingston, who have scored only eight times at home this season, face an Aberdeen outfit who have found the net just nine times on the road. Both sides are currently in good form but they may have to settle for a draw on Wednesday evening.

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

Kilmarnock vs. St Johnstone (Saturday, 3.00pm)

St Johnstone travel to Rugby Park on Saturday for a Scottish Premiership clash against Kilmarnock that pits the eighth-placed side against the ninth.

These two teams are locked together on 24 points, though Killie have played a game less than the Perth Saints.

We say: Kilmarnock 0-0 St Johnstone

St Johnstone are a team who have drawn plenty of games in recent weeks and we expect that trend to continue in Ayrshire on Saturday.

We predict the second goalless draw for the Saints in a week, while Killie probably will not be unhappy to end their recent short run of defeats with a point.

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

Dundee Utd vs. Hibernian (Saturday, 3.00pm)

Dundee United welcome Hibernian to Tannadice on Saturday for a Scottish Premiership clash that both teams will be desperate to win.

Neither of these teams has been in great form recently and both need to re-inject some momentum back into their seasons as soon as possible.

We say: Dundee United 0-1 Hibernian

Dundee United look like a side that has forgotten how to win games recently and we would expect Hibs to enjoy a narrow win on Tayside on Saturday.

Ross's side will be stinging after their League Cup exit and the manner of their defeat to Rangers and we suspect that United will feel the rough end of their reaction.

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