Sky Sports Scotland weekly predictor

It is the return of league action this weekend after an international break that saw Scotland record a 5-1 win in their opening World Cup qualifier against Malta.

Andy Walker and Ian Crocker are back to give their predictions of Saturday's Scottish Premiership matches.

We start off with a big one at Celtic Park.

Celtic v Rangers - Saturday 12pm kick-off

Andy Walker's prediction: Celtic 3-1 Rangers

Live SPFL Football

Key player: Scott Brown
He's a different player now that he's fit and his midfield battle with Joey Barton will be one of many fascinating contests.

Ian Crocker's prediction: Celtic 3-3 Rangers

Key player: Kenny Miller
Six goals in his last seven games against Celtic. He's currently on 99 Rangers goals. Still a man for the occasion.

Aberdeen v Inverness CT - Saturday 3pm kick-off

Andy Walker's prediction: Aberdeen 2-0 Inverness CT

Key player: James Maddison
Can the highly rated youngster from Norwich get the Dons on a winning run?

Ian Crocker's prediction: Aberdeen 2-1 Inverness CT

Key player: Adam Rooney
His goal at Celtic Park might start a flurry of goals for the big number nine.

Dundee v Kilmarnock - Saturday 3pm kick-off

Andy Walker's prediction: Dundee 3-0 Kilmarnock

Key player: Mark O'Hara
He's developing as more of a goal threat in his new more advanced role since signing from Kilmarnock.

Ian Crocker's prediction: Dundee 1-1 Kilmarnock

Key player: Rory Loy
Only a sub last time out but he may get a go against his first club.

Hearts v Hamilton Accies - Saturday 3pm kick-off

Andy Walker's prediction: Hearts 4-1 Hamilton Accies

Key player: Callum Paterson
Expecting a big season from him, especially as Gordon Strachan now sees him as first-choice pick for Scotland.

Ian Crocker's prediction: Hearts 2-0 Hamilton Accies

Key player: Callum Paterson
Good to him see playing for Scotland in Malta. He has a lot to offer.

Partick Thistle v St Johnstone - Saturday 3pm kick-off

Andy Walker's prediction: Partick Thistle 1-1 St Johnstone

Key player: Ziggy Gordon
Should play a big part in helping Thistle secure a comfortable place in the Premiership yet again.

Ian Crocker's prediction: Partick Thistle 1-1 St Johnstone

Key player: Chris Erskine
He seems suited to Thistle and vice versa. Four goals already. 

Ross County v Motherwell - Saturday 3pm kick-off

Andy Walker's prediction: Ross County 2-1 Motherwell

Key player: Michael Gardyne
Terrific goal threat for home side, an excellent support to already prolific Liam Boyce.

Ian Crocker's prediction: Ross County 1-0 Motherwell

Key player: Michael Gardyne
A player I enjoy watching and due a goal!
