Robbie Neilson was unbeaten in his last five games in charge at Hearts

New MK Dons boss Robbie Neilson has been named Scottish Premiership manager of the month for November.

Neilson left Hearts last week to join the League One side at the end of an unbeaten month with the Tynecastle side that had seen them climb to second in the table.

His last two games in charge were impressive victories over Motherwell and then Rangers, with the 2-0 win over Mark Warburton's side making them Celtic's closest challengers at the time.

Hearts' first game after Neilson's departure ended in a 2-2 draw with Ross County, with wins since for the Gers and Aberdeen seeing the Edinburgh side drop to fourth.

They will play their first game under new head coach Ian Cathro on Saturday when their opposition will again be Rangers, who moved back into second with a 2-1 win over Aberdeen on Saturday.
