Bhoys Back On Winning Track; Tangerines Stun Dons; Dunfermline Keep Survival Hopes Alive

Saturday saw five games in the Scottish Premier League:

At Glasgow:

Derek Riordan's goal at 52 minutes lifted Celtic to a 1-0 home win over Motherwell. Should archrival Rangers lose on Sunday, the Bhoys will wrap up the SPL title.

At Aberdeen:

Greg Cameron's double (17', 51') helped lift Dundee United to a 4-2 upset over hosts Aberdeen, hurting the Dons hopes of overtaking Rangers for second place (and a Champions League qualifying berth).

At Dunfermline:

Dunfermline moved to within four points of safety with their 1-0 home win over Hibernian. Philip McGuire scored the game's lone goal at 84 minutes.

At Inverness:

Visiting Falkirk and Inverness Caledonian Thistle battled to a 1-1 stalemate. Carl Finnigan put the Bairns in front at 80 minutes, beford Caley Thisle's John Rankin knotted it up at 86'.

At Edinburgh:

Michal Pospisil's tally at 78 minutes lifted Hearts to a 1-0 home win over Kilmarnock, crippling the guests' hopes of European play, while moving the Jambos to within three points of third place.
