We said: Dundee 1-1 St Johnstone

Such a pivotal game at the bottom of the standings should lead to a fiery spectacle on Saturday, but Dundee continue to struggle in front of their own fans while St Johnstone flatter to deceive away. There should be no repeat of the seven-goal drubbing from Celtic Park for the visitors, who did pick up some crucial wins beforehand, and we think this basement battle has a low-scoring draw written all over it.
