SPL roundup: Wins for Celtic, Inverness

However, Inverness's victory over Kilmarnock ensured that they restored their three-point advantage having played a game more, with Billy McKay again finding the net.

There were wins for Aberdeen and Hibernian over Partick Thistle and St Johnstone respectively, while Motherwell moved into the top three with victory at St Mirren.
