This problem has been avoided in recent years but arose this season as Dundee took on Rangers' fixtures - and obviously Rangers being at home that day would have had no impact on a Dundee United match!
Saints were due to head to the City of Discovery on Saturday, December 29 but will now go there on Sunday, December 30 - the game still kicking off at 3pm. This will allow Dundee's game at Dens Park against Aberdeen to go ahead on the Saturday.
