Motherwell travel to Celtic Park on Saturday, when Bhoys midfielder Scott Brown will play his last match before beginning a three-game suspension.

Celtic (2) v Motherwell (4)

Striker and top scorer Scott McDonald, formerly of Motherwell, is pushing for selection after being a substitute in last week's Old Firm derby at Ibrox.

Motherwell will be without striker David Clarkson who begins a two-match suspension. Defender Steven Hammell returns after missing last week's win over Hibernian through injury.

Gretna (12) v Inverness Caledonian Thistle (9)

Gretna have no injury worries. They will again pick from a 20-man squad, with the rest of the club's playing staff having been made redundant last week.

Inverness must cope without the suspended Grant Munro and Russell Duncan. Ian Black is out of favour with manager Craig Brewster following a comment made at a team meeting, but Barry Wilson could feature after returning from a loan spell at St Johnstone.

Hibernian (5) v St Mirren (11)

Hibernian goalkeeper Yves Ma-Kalambay, striker Steven Fletcher, defender Abdel Zarabi and midfielder Brian Kerr are all expected to be fit to return after lay-offs. However captain Rob Jones is suspended and Guillaume Beuzelin (knee) and Alan O'Brien (back) remain sidelined.

St Mirren will have David Barron and Franco Miranda available after suspension. Midfielder Gary Mason is ruled out with a back injury, full-back David van Zanten misses out with a knee problem, and goalkeeper Mark Howard (back) is also unavailable.

Kilmarnock (10) v Hearts (7)

Kilmarnock manager Jim Jefferies may be tempted to name an unchanged line-up after his improving team took seven points from a possible 12 in March.

Midfielder Rhian Dodds, who has not featured since December, remains out of action due to a hernia problem.

Hearts caretaker manager Stephen Frail hopes goalkeeper Steve Banks is fit for action after illness.

Defender Marius Zaliukas is a doubt because of an infection, winger Andrew Driver is definitely out with a thigh injury and defender Hristos Karipidis joins him on the sidelines, along with long-term absentees Bruno Aguiar and Neil McCann.

SUNDAY

Dundee United (3) v Rangers (1)

Dundee United have a major doubt over defender Lee Wilkie, who has not trained all week because of a dead leg but will be given a late fitness test.

Danny Swanson and Garry Kenneth are suspended after their red cards against Hearts last weekend so Darren Dods and Jim O'Brien come into contention.

Rangers striker Daniel Cousin (broken jaw) will see a specialist tomorrow, hoping for the green light to face United.

Midfielder Charlie Adam will also see a specialist after damaging a knee in training but is likely to be missing for several weeks.

MONDAY

Aberdeen (8) v Falkirk (6)

Aberdeen will welcome back defender Zander Diamond (eye) while Jeffrey de Visscher is scheduled to return to full training at the weekend following hamstring problems and could be in contention.

Jamie Smith, Richie Byrne (both hamstring), Steve Lovell and Derek Young (both knee) are still out.

Falkirk manager John Hughes has no fresh injury worries. Long-term absentees Tim Krul (dislocated shoulder) and Dean Holden (broken leg) are still out but former Crewe striker Michael Higdon is expected to be included in the matchday squad.
