Dundee United set for a real test at leaders Saints

Ladbrokes Scottish Championship
BT Sport, 7.45pm Friday

St Mirren and Dundee United could fill their boots in the Ladbrokes Championship top-of-the-table showdown in Paisley.

United have been in excellent form recently but they will face a real test against a Saints side who don't know when they are beaten, as last week's recovery from two goals down to win 3-2 at Queen of the South proved.

The Tannadice side will be without influential midfielder Fraser Fyvie and are a little too short to back with confidence.

Saints have plenty of talents who can score, such as exciting midfielder Lewis Morgan, and with both sides in fine nick goals could be on the cards at the Paisley 2021 Stadium.
