Sinclair makes long-awaited St Johnstone return

Craig Levein makes three changes to the St Johnstone side which lost at Tannadice last weekend, including a switch between the sticks, as he targets a first home league win of the season.

Long-term injury absentee Ross Sinclair plays his first match since July 2023 in goal, replacing Josh Rae. Sinclair has been sidelined with an elbow injury suffered in a behind-closed-doors match a year ago.

Graham Carey drops to the bench, with Cammy MacPherson taking his berth in midfield. Striker Adama Sidibeh starts a four-game ban after being red carded against Dundee United.

Jason Holt, who sealed a deadline-day return to the club, is among the substitutes.
