Saints changes
St Johnstone player-manager Owen Coyle made seven personnel changes from the team which defeated QOS in the league last Saturday for Tuesday’s Challenge Cup victory over Raith (writes James Masson).
The exception is central defender Kevin Rutkiewicz, who is suffering from a sprained ankle.

Also missing is teenage forward Steven Doris, who suffered a leg knock against Raith which isn’t as bad as was feared.

“All of the others left out against Raith are back in contention,” said Owen.

“We had Hamilton watched against Dundee last Saturday and are expecting a tough game. But there are three points to be won and we aim to get them.”

Left-back Goran Stanic was one of the players rested in midweek, but the former Macedonian internationalist has started the season well and is expected to regain his left-back slot.
