Dundee United’s Scottish Premiership clash with St Johnstone has been postponed because of a frozen pitch.

The game was called off just under two hours before the scheduled 3pm kick-off following a second pitch inspection at Tannadice.

United wrote on Twitter: “After a pitch inspection by the match referee, today’s game has been postponed due to a small area of the pitch still not being sufficiently thawed out.”

The game has been rearranged for Tuesday evening with a 6.30pm kick-off.
