Second-bottom Kilmarnock racked up a 4-0 win over Hamilton Accies at New Douglas Park to close the gap on the Lanarkshire club to four points. Greg Kiltie's double, a Kris Boyd penalty and a goal from Josh Magennis saw Killie cruise to victory.

Inverness CT also enjoyed a big away win, defeating Partick Thistle 4-1 with goals from Carl Tremarco, Miles Storey, Josh Meekings and Jordan Roberts. Kris Doolan scored for the Jags.

Dundee United will be relegated if they don't beat Dundee at Dens Park on Monday night in a match that is live on BT Sport with a 7.45pm kick-off.
