The SPFL Scottish Premiership is back after an extended International Break as Si Ferry, Slaney, Derek Ferguson and Gordon Dalziel look ahead to this weekend's games.

Other topics include Derek McInnes' and Rangers pursuit for the top of the league as they face Kilmarnock at Ibrox on Saturday, a big weekend for Hibs as new Manager Marink Reedijk takes charge of his first game and how Hearts will balance domestic and European football as their Europa Conference League campaign kicks off this week.
