Miovski has 15 league goals for a bottom-half Aberdeen side, and scored at Hampden Park in both the League Cup and Scottish Cup semi-finals.

Butland has earned rave reviews during his debut season at Ibrox and has kept 18 clean sheets so far.

O'Riley is Celtic's top scorer in the league and has been their stand-out performer this campaign.

The winners will be announced ahead of the annual awards night on Sunday May 19.
