| The Perth side were the last team to defeat Hamilton on their controversial artificial pitch when they beat them 4-3 on the final day of last season’s league campaign.
And now they aim to win again, with Derek stating, “We want a victory to help the momentum towards our Scottish Cup semi-final against Rangers or Partick.
“Although we lost 1-0 on that pitch earlier this season, we’ve generally done OK on it. It’s not an ideal surface, but we have an artificial training surface at McDiarmid Park and the boys are used to playing on that type of pitch.”
Goran Stanic was taken off hurt in the 1-1 home divide against Dunfermline, but will be OK, while Rocco Quinn was expected to be back in training today. |
