Sports Mole provides score predictions and previews for all of today's Scottish Premiership fixtures, including Hearts vs. Celtic.

Dundee United play host to Ross County on Wednesday evening looking to end a six-match losing streak in the Scottish Premiership.

While the Tangerines still sit in seventh position in the standings, Ross County have recently moved into 10th spot courtesy of an upturn in form.

We say: Dundee United 1-1 Ross County


Despite the difference in league positions, it could be argued that the visitors are the marginal favourites for this contest. Nevertheless, having gotten back on track in the cup, we expect Dundee United to do enough to get another much-needed point on the board.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Hearts vs. Celtic (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Hearts will be hoping to extend their four-match unbeaten run on Wednesday when they host Celtic as SPL action returns.

The Hoops sit four points behind league leaders Rangers, and they will be hoping to put some more pressure on the Gers in midweek.

We say: Hearts 1-2 Celtic


Two of the SPL's strongest teams competing against each other is always going to bring a close match, with both squads looking to push further up the table.

However, the slight edge that Celtic have is their ability in front of goal, and that is something that should help them to secure all three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting under 3.5 goals.

Motherwell vs. Hibernian (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Motherwell will host Hibernian on Wednesday night, with just two points separating the two teams in the league table right now, with the visitors looking to leapfrog their opponents.

Both clubs were able to progress in the Scottish Cup at the weekend, and that is something they shall be hoping to take back into the SPL after they each lost their most recent encounter in the competition.

We say: Motherwell 1-1 Hibernian


The two teams shared the points when they met earlier in the season, and there is a chance that could end up taking place once again.

Each of them are similar in quality overall, and that is reflected in the league table right now, which could end up leading to another draw this time around.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.

Rangers vs. Livingston (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Rangers shall be hoping to continue their impressive season on Wednesday when they host Livingston, with the Gers aiming to maintain or extend their four-point gap at the top of the table.

On the other hand, the Lions can put some pressure on the teams above them with a victory, which is something they have failed to do against their opponents three times already this season.

We say: Rangers 2-1 Livingston


Livingston have put together two strong performances to kick-start 2022, which should see them enter this particular match with a lot of confidence.

However, Rangers have dominated the Lions three times this season, and considering the quality that they have in their squad, the Gers should be able to take another three points.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 2.5 goals.

St Johnstone vs. Dundee (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

The two bottom teams in the SPL will compete against each other on Wednesday in what is a crucial match in the relegation battle as St Johnstone host Dundee.

The hosts have the chance to lift themselves off the foot of the table with a victory, but they will need to respond to being knocked out of the Scottish Cup.

We say: St Johnstone 0-2 Dundee


The lack of goals that St Johnstone have scored this season has proven to be a sticking point for them, only finding the back of the net 11 times throughout the campaign.

That is something that could cause them problems once again this week, with Dundee looking to kick on from their recent victory, which they could do once again.

Our tipster partners are predicting over 1.5 goals.
