WATCH as the Herald and Times sports team look ahead to this weekend's Ladbrokes Premiership action and discuss the biggest talking points in Scottish football.
Deputy Head of Sport Scott Mullen and Senior Sports Writer Graeme Macpherson join Online Sports Editor Alasdair Mackenzie today.
We react to the news that Celtic were handed a £16,000 fine by UEFA on Friday for crowd disturbances during their Champions League match against Manchester City, while we also touch on Kieran Tierney's lucky escape from injury and the future of Leigh Griffiths.
Rangers travel north to face rock-bottom Inverness tonight and we consider their chances, whether the Ibrox club need a summer clearout and the ongoing manager hunt.
After Wednesday's Edinburgh Derby disappointment, we also touch on Hearts' struggle for form ahead of their league trip to Partick Thistle.
Join us again on Monday at 12.30pm on the Evening Times Facebook page for the next installment of Ahead of the Game.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
