St Johnstone v Motherwell: How to watch Premiership action and who is the ref

Motherwell head to Perth this weekend for a Premiership clash that could be pivotal to their chances of finishing in the top six.

It's one of three games left before the split, and Graham Alexander's side are still looking for their first league win of 2022 against a side who desperately need points if they are to avoid at least a play-off slot.

Motherwell are eighth in the table currently, but level on 36 points with Dundee United and Ross County above them, while Livingston (5th) and Hibs are a point ahead in fourth.

It's still all to play for, but Motherwell will need to pick up their form if they're going to have hopes of snagging a Euros slot with a top-four finish.

They've taken three draws and a defeat from their last four league games, while Saints have had a win, a draw and two defeats in their last four.

Motherwell beat St Johnstone 2-0 last time out at Fir Park, with a 1-1 draw in Perth back in August.

Capacity crowds are allowed back inside stadiums, but if you can't make it to McDiarmid Park, you can catch the action on Saints TV by clicking here, priced at £17.50.

Man in the middle
