Celtic extended their lead over Rangers at the top of the William Hill Premiership to 13 points with a routine 3-0 home win over St Mirren.

Brendan Rodgers' side suffered a stinging 3-0 defeat by their Old Firm rivals at Ibrox on Thursday and the start of the game retained remnants of that struggle until the 33rd minute when star German winger Nicolas Kuhn swept in the opener.
