The hosts have done well this season and are in third place in the standings, but 11 points separate them from second-placed Rangers. They're coming off a 1-0 defeat at home to ague leaders and reigning champions Celtic, with Callum McGregor scoring an 87th-minute winner.
Rangers, meanwhile, resumed their league campaign following the international break with a hard-fought 3-2 home win over Hibernian. They came back from behind twice before Alfredo Morelos scored the decisive goal in the 62nd minute.
