Scottish Premiership: Hibernian vs Hearts, plus Celtic, Rangers, Motherwell, Kilmarnock live on Sky Sports

Kilmarnock vs Rangers, Hibernian vs Hearts, Motherwell vs Celtic and Motherwell vs Rangers will all be shown live on Sky Sports; Sky Sports offers live coverage of the William Hill Scottish Premiership, with up to 60 games available on the home of Scottish football

October's Edinburgh derby, plus Rangers' trip to Kilmarnock and Motherwell's games at home to the Old Firm will all be live on Sky Sports.

The announcement follows Rangers' first league game of the season at Ibrox against Hibernian, and Celtic's trip to Ross County being added to the schedule.

In the latest picks, Kilmarnock - who are bottom of the table after four games - welcome Philippe Clement's Rangers to Rugby Park on October 20.

A mouthwatering clash between Hibernian and Hearts then takes place on October 27 - with the Edinburgh derby headlining a double-header on Sunday, with Celtic's trip to Motherwell following that.

Hibernian - who have zero wins from four in the league this season - were winless against their rivals last season, with Hearts winning the only meeting at Easter Road, while the other two games ended in a draw.
