Can Rangers extend their impressive run and move to the top of the Premiership? Martin Dowden, Ewan Murray and Scott Allan assess why Derek McInnes' side have turned their season around and what to expect against Kilmarnock. The discussion also includes a first look at Marink Reedijk's Hibernian as he takes charge at Dundee United, asking whether a new manager can spark an instant revival at Easter Road.

Attention then turns to Celtic, who travel to Motherwell after a difficult spell. Is this a must-win match for Martin O'Neill's side? The panel also considers whether Jota can spark a Celtic revival, and the episode covers the wider Scottish Premiership weekend, including the latest on Hearts, Dundee's injury problems and Aberdeen's progress.

The programme ranges across the key fixtures of the weekend. Hearts face St Mirren in a fixture the panel sees as the start of a crucial run, while Falkirk meet Dundee and Aberdeen host St Johnstone. Could St Johnstone cause an upset? That question is explored in the closing segment.

The 26-minute episode, broadcast on Radio Scotland, also addresses whether the international break was too long for the squads involved. Listeners can expect a detailed look at form, pressure and the title race as the weekend approaches.
