Team of the Week

Craig Fowler from A View From the Terrace names his Team of the Week, with St Johnstone striker Guy Melamed the star man

GK - Craig Gordon (Heart of Midlothian)
Dunfermline were rather unlucky to leave without a single point from their trip to Tynecastle on Saturday as they found Craig Gordon to be in inspired form in the home goal. His first-half save from Ryan Dow was a particular highlight, keeping the game at 0-0 and laying the foundations for Jamie Walker's late goal.

DC - Reghan Tumilty (Raith Rovers)
Solid in defence and netted a world-class strike as Raith Rovers recovered from an early setback to defeat Dundee 3-1 in the Scottish Championship.

DC - Joe Shaughnessy (St Mirren)
An inspiring performance from the centre-back helped the Buddies to a famous win at Celtic Park as Jim Goodwin's men heaped further misery on Neil Lennon's side with a 2-1 victory.

DC - Darren McGregor (Hibernian)
With Ryan Porteous dropped to the bench amid speculation over his future, McGregor came back into the starting XI and strolled it for the visitors. He also netted the opening goal with a thunderous finish after the ball dropped to him following a set-piece.

MR - Luke McCowan (Ayr United)
The right winger put in an excellent performance and netted two goals as Ayr United saw off Alloa Athletic 4-1 at Somerset Park.

MC - Ben Williamson (Arbroath)
The on-loan Rangers midfielder impressed again in the centre of the park as the Red Lichties lifted themselves off the foot of the Scottish Championship table with a 1-0 win at Morton.

MC - Ali McCann (St Johnstone)
Although Saints found themselves in a 2-0 hole at one point, they were always the better team at Rugby Park and deservedly came back to win 3-2. McCann dominated the centre of the park for the visitors and netted an excellent finish for the winner.

MC - Jackson Irvine (Hibernian)
The January signing may still be a little short on match sharpness but that hasn't stopped him from impressing for his new side. He did so again on Saturday at Tannadice, including an excellent through ball for Martin Boyle to make the points safe.

ML - Kai Kennedy (Raith Rovers)
A goal and an assist, Kennedy once more ran riot for John McGlynn's side as they staged an emphatic comeback against James McPake's visitors and move into second place in the Championship.

FC - Kristian Dennis (St Mirren)
St Mirren took the game to Celtic with two strikers in the starting XI and two attackers in the wing-back roles. That intention is all well and good, but you still need the players to do the business and that's exactly what you can say about Dennis, who netted the opening  goal and worked tirelessly to continue asking questions of the Parkhead back-line.

FC - Guy Melamed (St Johnstone)
Melamed hasn't had as many opportunities as he would have liked but the Israeli striker showed his worth in St Johnstone's come-from-behind win over Kilmarnock. He netted their first goal, won the free-kick in the build-up to the second and laid on the third. He is this week's star man.
