GLASGOW, Feb 12 (Reuters) - Croatia striker Dado Prso scored twice in a 3-0 win over third-placed Hibernian which put Rangers on top of the Scottish Premier League on Saturday.

Rangers, with 62 points, lead on goal difference from Glasgow rivals Celtic who play at Inverness Caledonian Thistle on Sunday.

Hearts, in fourth, beat Kilmarnock 3-0 and Aberdeen (fifth) went down 2-1 at Dunfermline Athletic. Rangers dominated the game and could have scored a hatful of goals if Hibernian goalkeeper Simon Brown had not been in superb form.

Brown saved a penalty by Nacho Novo just before halftime after Novo was fouled. Prso hit the woodwork after scoring his first goal with a header from a corner.

Prso scored his second five minutes after halftime to put the game beyond Hibernian's reach before Belgian striker Thomas Buffel added a third.
