Preview: Dundee (H)

Following on from the international break, Saints are back in action this weekend when we welcome Tayside rivals Dundee to McDiarmid Park in the Scottish Premiership.

Craig Levein's side will be aiming to bounce back to winning ways following defeat to Celtic last time out.

Dundee will be looking to build on their last outing when they defeated Aberdeen 1-0 at Dens Park thanks to a Luke McCowan penalty kick.

Community Day

We are looking forward to welcoming Saints in the Community as the matchday sponsor for our fixture against Dundee.

The St Johnstone Community Trust’s positive work continues to change lives through football across the region on a daily basis.

Now the spotlight will be turned in their direction on ‘Community Day’ where supporters young and old can come together to have a fun-filled afternoon at McDiarmid Park.

Limited edition scarves will be on sale in the lead-up to the game, the opportunity for fan face paints will add further colour to the Ormond Stand and representatives from Saints in the Community’s invaluable projects will escort players onto the pitch for kick-off.

The players will be wearing special warm-up shirts to raise further awareness of Saints in the Community and the #MoreThanFootball message will be voiced wide and clear.

More than 1500 tickets have been sent out to local schools and, whether a regular at the stadium or getting set to head along for the first time, everyone at the football club is excited to welcome you back. 

And to get everyone in the ‘Community Matchday’ spirit, a ‘Wear Blue Day’ will be taking place next week.

On Friday, March 29 – the day before the game – Saints in the Community will also host a Fun 4s and Super 5s football festival at McDiarmid Park. Fun4s take place from 6.15-7.15pm while the Super 5s kick-off at 7.30pm and run through until 8.30pm.

Teams will take part in five 10-minute games, with family and friends encouraged to come down and join in the fun too.

Spaces remain available and team coaches can book a place HERE.

Fans attending the match, which kicks-off at 3pm, are also advised to ‘Bring a Pound to the Ground’ for bucket collections in support of Saints in the Community.
