Livingston and Dundee Utd latest game to fall victim to cold snap

LIVINGSTON and Dundee United's Premiership clash has become the latest to fall victim to the cold snap. 

A 10.30am inspection today ruled the surface unplayable due to the West Lothian pitch being frozen. 

It's one of several matches in the SPFL called off this weekend, which also includes another top flight fixture between Motherwell and St Mirren at Fir Park.

On Friday, Steelmen chiefs said there was "extensive stadium damage and flooding caused by recent cold weather".

A string of matches have been called off throughout the leagues, with just eight surviving at the time of writing. Other games to have fallen victim to the conditions include the Championship clash between Dundee and Cove Rangers and League One's Alloa and Falkirk tussle. 

The Premiership returned to action on Thursday after a month-long hiatus for the World Cup when Rangers defeated Hibernian 3-2 in an Ibrox thriller. 

Weather permitting, Livingston travel to Celtic Park on Wednesday night to take on the champions, while United next host Hearts on Saturday.
