Ross County beat Dundee United

Another Premiership vs Championship and County used their couple of weeks off to boost their ranks. Jason Naismith comes from St Mirren to strengthen the defence while Jim O’Brien joins from Shrewsbury Town on-loan until the end of the season to lend a hand in attack.

Dundee United will be hoping to share the top-flight with their hosts next term and make this a regular thing, but they have much work to do and have hit a flat spell, losing two and drawing one of their last three. The Arabs have struggled to find the net of late and shouldn’t get too many chances here. Staggies to show their class at 17/20.

Hearts beat Raith Rovers

The Jambos have endured a bit of a season of it so far. After beating Rangers in Edinburgh and looking like a side capable of finishing second, they’ve lost manager Robbie Neilson to MK Dons and his replacement, Ian Cathro, hasn’t won too many friends.

Slovenian international Andraz Struna is one of the higher profile names to come in during this transfer window, but they have handled their business well. Raith were beaten 2-0 by Greenock Morton last week and haven’t won a game in nine. That makes The Jam Tarts tasty at 1/2.

Dunfermline beat Alloa Athletic

Lastly, an in-form Pars are taken to do the business away to Alloa Athletic at Recreation Park. It’s a tight little venue and the part-timers of Alloa will look to make things as difficult as possible in front of their own fans, but they are another low on confidence, winning just two of their last nine.

When we place that against the form of Dunfermline, who ply their trade in the division above, it makes The Pars very easy to trust. Allan Johnston has turned around the fortunes of his side and they enter this unbeaten in eight. They are familiar with challenges like this from their time in the lower leagues and should get the win at an attractive 23/20.
