Scottish Premiership: Build-up as Hearts host Falkirk then Celtic face Kilmarnock
Scott Bain

Celtic and Hearts return to the domestic scene after contrasting European fortunes on Thursday.

Martin O'Neill's reigning champions came from behind to beat Besiktas 3-2 in the Europa League, while Wouter Vrancken's injury decimated side were losing 3-1 to Thun in Switzerland in the Conference League.

Meantime, Rangers have narrowed the gap with Celtic at the top of the table to just a point with last night's 2-0 win over St Mirren.

Victory in Paisley also leaves Hearts seven behind in third - and defeat today would mean Falkirk would drop their hosts down to fourth.

Meanwhile, Kilmarnock travel to Celtic Park now at the bottom of the table after Hibernian's 4-0 demolition of Aberdeen.
