At Edinburgh:

Five different goal scorers powered Hibernian to a 5-1 brassknuckling of visiting---and slumping---St. Mirren.

Thomas Gravesen (24') provided the only goal in Celtic's 1-0 home triumph over Falkirk to maintain their 16-point advantage at the top of the SPL standings.

At Kilmarnock:

Nine-man Motherwell suprised homestanding Kilmarnock 2-1. Richie Foran (15') and James Paterson (20') scored for The Steelmen.

At Dundee:

Paul Hartley's successful penalty kick (55') lifted Hearts to a 1-0 road win over Dundee United.

At Dunfermline:

Visiting Inverness Caledonian Thistle and basement-occupying Dunfermline played to a 0-0 stalemate.
