GLASGOW, Aug 30 (Reuters) - Kilmarnock emerged as unlikely leaders of the Scottish Premier League on Saturday after beating Dundee United 2-0.

Gavin Skelton grabbed the first half opener before Australian striker Danny Invincibile fired their second to secure the points and put them top of the SPL standings on 10 points from four games.

Hearts won 2-1 at Hamilton Academical with goals from Lithuanian defender Marius Zaliuska and Andy Driver.

Accies hit back with a late header from Derek Lyle, but were unable to preserve their unbeaten home record which stretched back to April 2007.

Hibernian lost 1-0 at home to Motherwell, St Mirren lost 1-0 at home to Aberdeen thanks to Darren Mackie's goal and Falkirk lost 2-1 against Inverness Caledonian Thistle.

Champions Celtic face Rangers on Sunday with both on seven points from three games.
