Rangers restored its 13-point advantage at the top of the Scottish
Premier League with a 2-0 win at Kilmarnock on Tuesday.
Fullback Steven Whittaker hit his 11th goal of the season in
the 55th minute before striker Kenny Miller made it 2-0 to the
defending champions at Rugby Park.
Rangers had several chances before Whittaker shot into the
bottom corner from a narrow angle when the visiting defense failed
to clear Sasa Papac's cross.
It was 2-0 six minutes later when Cameron Bell blocked an
effort to give Miller the chance to score with a high shot into the
net.
Rangers has 67 points to Celtic's 54 after 28 games.
Motherwell is another nine points back in fifth after a 0-0 draw
with lowly St. Mirren in Tuesday's other match.
