The Scottish Premiership is about to enter its first mid-season hiatus with international football taking centre stage after this weekend's games.Here are some games and names to watch out for.Okay, Celtic v Rangers is the biggest top-flight match of the weekend but it will get plenty of attention.
Head coach Steven Naismith has not yet settled on a first choice XI, due in part to Hearts juggling European fixtures along with league and League Cup games. For United, a morale-boosting win against St Johnstone last weekend followed draws with Dundee and Ross County. They are also through to the last eight of the League Cup and manager Jim Goodwin is seeing his newly built squad spread the goals around.Last Saturday was almost the turning point Hibernian had been looking for, with Kieron Bowie scoring to put them 2-1 up against Dundee.
The Scotland Under-21 forward, 21, is back in Scottish football after four years plying his trade down south and on Sunday he will be hoping to find the net against a Kilmarnock side, who exited the Conference League at the hands of Copenhagen on Thursday.Kilmarnock boss Derek McInnes, like his Hearts, Rangers and St Mirren counterparts, has been trying to tackle both domestic and European fixtures early in the season and it has taken a toll.
