LAST TIME OUT
SAINTS
Saints ended 2023 with a point at Livingston.
The Perth side started brightly however, in a match of few clear-cut chances, it was Livi who came closest to taking the lead just before half time as Dimitar Mitov brilliantly tipped a 25 yard effort from Jason Holt behind for a corner.
Saints thought they had taken the lead with 18 minutes remaining as Luke Robinson had finished off a Nicky Clark cut back however, the goal was ruled out as Clark was offside in the build-up.
Livi should really have won it with the last kick of the ball as deep into stoppage time as Michael Devlin somehow dragged a brilliant chance wide from 12 yards when it looked like the Livi captain was going to score.

DUNDEE
Captain Joe Shaughnessy was the last gasp hero again for the Dark Blues with a 95th minute equaliser to earn a point in a 2-2 draw away to fourth placed Kilmarnock.
A Luke McCowan goal put the Dee ahead in the first half.
Killie fought back well in the second half.
However, late goals by Joe Wright and Rory McKenzie put the home side ahead.
Killie’s second goal was deep into injury time, but there was just enough time for Shaughnessy to delight the travelling support, as he did away to Ross County, by scoring at the death.
This time he headed home from a corner, so late that the final whistle sounded as soon as the game restarted.
