Motherwell took a major step towards securing a seventh placed Premiership finish with a solid 2-0 win over relegation-haunted Kilmarnock at Fir Park.
Blair Spittal sent them on their way to victory after just four minutes, with Kevin van Veen having a 'second' goal disallowed for offside, but the Dutchman got his goal in the last minute.
The win leaves Motherwell in eighth place, two points behind Livingston, following their surprise defeat to basement side Ross County, which is a remarkable turnaround from only a few months ago when they and Dundee United were bottom of the table.
