PERTH — St Johnstone welcome Motherwell tonight looking to answer Saturday’s 4-0 defeat at Ibrox, when Kai Fotheringham was sent off and will miss this one through suspension.

Josh Fowler has six goals already in a bright start to his Premiership campaign. Motherwell arrive without a league win in six. Saints will fancy home points; Well will fancy spoiling the evening.

“Wind: cooperative,” muttered a fictional groundsman. “Please.”

Follow club channels for team news; get there early if you’re driving.
