SET FOR RETURN
Dundee striker Steven Craig will be in line for a starting place when Dundee try to get their First Division campaign back on track against St Johnstone at Dens Park this Saturday (writes Tom Duthie).
The ex-Motherwell and Aberdeen man made an explosive start to his Dark Blue career, scoring two goals in his first three games before being sidelined by an ankle injury during the win at Brechin at the start of last month.

His only appearance on the team lines since then was as an unused substitute in the heavy defeat at the hands of Airdrie United nine days ago.

But he has been back in full training for over a week now and should be fit enough to start this weekend.

Also in training before the end of the week should be Iain Anderson.

The free weekend courtesy of Hamilton’s involvement in the Bell’s Cup Final yesterday will also have seen the likes of Bobby Mann shake off the minor knocks he’s been carrying for a couple of weeks or so.

Fans are reminded that to avoid a clash with Scotland’s Hampden friendly against the US, the kick-off for the visit of Saints has been brought forward to 1 pm.

Definitely missing that game will be Dundee’s Kelvin Jack and Saints’ Jason Scotland, who are on World Cup duty with Trinidad and Tobago against Bahrain.
