Rangers coasted to a 4-1 victory at Hearts on Saturday to stay on target to defend its Scottish Premier League title.

Rangers remains 10 points ahead of Celtic, whose first game under interim manager Neil Lennon ended in a 3-1 victory over Kilmarnock. Celtic has played two games more than its Glasgow rival.

Danny Wilson scored his first goal for Rangers after just four minutes. Suso Santana leveled for Hearts, but Kenny Miller put Rangers back in front on 31 minutes before Steven Naismith's second-half double put the visitors in control.

Robbie Keane scored twice for Celtic to take his tally to 11 goals in 11 games since arriving on loan from Tottenham in the January transfer window. Scott Brown added Celtic's third before Kilmarnock captain Craig Bryson scored a consolation.
