Wednesday night sees a battle of the bottom two in the Scottish Premiership as Dundee United host Ross County at Tannadice Park.
United were denied a crucial three points late on against Hearts on Christmas Eve, whereas Ross County were narrowly defeated by Rangers in front of their home faithful.
We say: Dundee United 1-1 Ross County
In a crucial game between two relegation candidates, we could see quite a cagey affair on Wednesday night, even though both sides are prone to conceding plenty of goals.
Dundee United will take confidence from the way they competed with Hearts last time out and should be good enough for a point here, even if all three points is what they really desire.

Aberdeen will be looking to avoid four consecutive defeats in the Scottish Premiership when they travel to face Kilmarnock at Rugby Park on Wednesday night.
A 3-1 loss at St Mirren on Christmas Eve for Aberdeen dampened the festive mood among supporters, whereas Kilmarnock fans will be hoping their side can go one step further than when they drew 2-2 to Motherwell in their last game.
We say: Kilmarnock 1-2 Aberdeen
Kilmarnock have resumed their league campaign in respectable fashion but need to start recording wins to move away from the bottom of the league standings.
Aberdeen are struggling for form but should be able to collect all three points at Rugby Park to ensure they finish 2022 in third position in the Scottish Premiership.

Livingston will be looking to put successive defeats behind them when they host St Mirren at the Tony Macaroni Arena in the Scottish Premiership on Wednesday night.
Only a point separates the two sides heading into this clash, with the league table relatively tight as the season approaches 2023 and its business end.
We say: Livingston 1-0 St Mirren
Livingston are coming into this game off the back of one of their poorest results of the season, so expect a big reaction on Wednesday night in front of their home supporters.
St Mirren took advantage of a comical performance from Aberdeen last time out but are unlikely to record back-to-back wins when considering their woeful away record.

Michael Beale will hope to record a fourth successive win as Rangers boss when his side play host to Motherwell on Wednesday evening.
At a time when the Glasgow giants are second in the Scottish Premiership standings, Motherwell travel to Ibrox in ninth spot and without a victory in four matches.
We say: Rangers 3-1 Motherwell
After three hard-earned wins, no-one should necessarily expect Rangers to run riot against their out-of-form opponents. Nevertheless, we can only back a home win, perhaps by the biggest margin under Beale to date.

St Johnstone vs. Hearts (Wednesday, 7.45pm)

Two of the top six in the Scottish Premiership clash on Wednesday night when St Johnstone host Hearts at McDiarmid Park.
Both sides will be looking to return to winning ways after disappointing results last time out, with the winners of this fixture likely to finish 2022 inside the top three alongside Celtic and Rangers.
We say: St Johnstone 1-0 Hearts
Although St Johnstone came back from Celtic Park without any points on Christmas Eve, there were positives to take away from the performance as they look to record a victory on home soil.
Hearts did not get the win they expected at Dundee United and lost many players to injury in the process, meaning a trip to face the Saints could be a real struggle on Wednesday night.

Celtic will be bidding to record a 12th successive league victory when they face Hibernian at Easter Road on Wednesday evening.
At a time when the visitors sit nine points clear at the top of the Scottish Premiership standings, Hibs are down in seventh spot despite getting back to winning ways last time out.
We say: Hibernian 0-2 Celtic
Celtic broke a habit of being pushed in recent games by coasting past St Johnstone, yet we feel that they may have to work harder here. Nevertheless, we cannot back against the leaders, who may be able to prevail with a clean sheet to boot.
