Dundee v St Mirren: betting preview, TV channel, team news and tip

TV: BT Sport 1, 12.30pm Saturday

St Mirren can give themselves a fighting chance of avoiding the Ladbrokes Premiership playoffs with a win at relegated Dundee.

The Saints are a point behind Hamilton with a better goal difference. The Accies are hosting St Johnstone at New Douglas Park.

Dundee sacked Jim McIntyre this week and coach James McPake will be in charge. Although they ended a ten-game losing streak with a win at Livingston last week, it can't mask what has been a horror season.

Saints have shown plenty of battling spirit which brought a win against Hamilton on Monday, and they can keep the pressure on with a Dens Park success.
