Here’s what to look out for at both ends of the table in the Scottish Premiership this weekend…
What’s live on Sky Sports?
Rangers head to Tannadice Park on Sunday looking to banish their away day blues to stop Dundee United closing the gap on them in the Premiership.
Philippe Clement’s side have failed to win any of their last four league games on the road – their worst away run since 2017 – leaving them trailing by 13 points in the title race with United 10 behind them in third.
Just 28 per cent of Rangers’ points in the Scottish Premiership this season have been earned away, a league-low, while Jim Goodwin’s side have only picked up 49 per cent of their points in the division this term at home.
United avoided three straight league defeats last time out with a narrow win at St Mirren, but they are winless in eight league meetings with Rangers.
Will Celtic get their Dundee revenge?
Celtic will be determined to avoid a repeat performance on Saturday after Dundee earned a point against the Scottish Champions a week ago in a dramatic 3-3 draw.
Brendan Rodgers’ side have won each of their last seven home league games by an aggregate score of 23-0, their best record at home since March 2014.
The Dark Blues are in strong form with Premiership draws against both sides of the Old Firm followed up by a Dundee derby win to progress in the Scottish Cup.
Will cup victory see Aberdeen’s league form improve?
Aberdeen are winless in their last 12 Premiership games but will have been boosted by returning to winning ways last weekend to progress in the Scottish Cup.
The Dons are on their worst league run since 1999 but they have the chance to record back-to-back wins against St Mirren to move back up to third.
Stephen Robinson’s side are also struggling for form, losing their last four league games.
They have also conceded 16 goals from set-pieces, excluding penalties, in the Scottish Premiership this season which is more than any other top-flight team.
Can Hibs extend unbeaten run?
Hibs are in formidable form and could make it eight Premiership games unbeaten this weekend when they face Ross County on Saturday.
If they manage back-to-back victories against the Staggies they could move up to fifth in the Premiership as they forget their early season relegation fears.
Ross County have only won one of their last seven league games against Hibs and have lost three of their last four games in Dingwall as they risk another season in the relegation play-offs.
What else is there to look out for?
Winless in 10 league games and already nine points adrift at the foot of the Premiership, you have to wonder if there is a way back for St Johnstone this season.
They are at home to Motherwell on Saturday who are looking for an improvement on the road to remain in top six, having won just won of their last seven away games.
Hearts are unbeaten in their last four league games and know a result at home to Kilmarnock could take them out of the relegation play-off place.
Kilmarnock have only lost one of their last 10 Premiership games away to Hearts but they are on a current winless run of six on the road.
