Rangers moved to within six points of Ladbrokes Premiership pacesetters Celtic with a 2-0 home win over Hearts.

Jamie Murphy's 41st-minute goal gave Rangers the half-time advantage at Ibrox and Russell Martin wrapped up the victory with two minutes remaining.

Celtic play at Aberdeen on Sunday.

Neil Lennon was sent to the stand as his Hibernian team let slip a two-goal lead at Kilmarnock.

Lennon was ordered off by referee Kevin Clancy moments after Kris Boyd netted on the rebound to earn Kilmarnock a 2-2 draw after a disputed 61st-minute penalty, awarded for a Ryan Porteous handball.

Florian Kamberi and Porteous had put Hibs two ahead inside the first nine minutes but a stunning strike from Jordan Jones and then Boyd's effort levelled matters in the space of three second-half minutes.

St Johnstone ended their recent disappointing run with a 2-0 victory over Ross County.

Murray Davidson scored in the 29th and 40th minutes to put the home side in control - and a bad day for the visitors was competed with five minutes remaining when Craig Curran was dismissed off after picking up a second yellow card.

Craig Tanner's 33rd-minute goal gave Motherwell victory at Dundee, while Hamilton came from behind to beat Partick 2-1.

Conor Sammon had Thistle ahead in the 10th minute but Antonio Rojano equalised immediately and the hosts won it thanks to David Templeton's last-minute effort.
