Dundee vs St Johnstone

Dundee and St Johnstone couldn't be separated at Dens Park on Wednesday, 2 September 2026, playing out a 1-1 draw in a Scottish Premiership clash that stayed goalless right up until half-time. Neither side found a way through in the first 45 minutes, and it looked like it might be one of those nights where chances were hard to come by. The second half told a different story once the scoring finally got going. Both teams will take something from this one, though neither will be fully satisfied with just a point. Dundee will feel they let a chance slip having got themselves back on level terms, while St Johnstone can point to their away form holding up against tricky opposition. The draw does little to change the picture at either end of the table, but with games coming thick and fast this season, dropped points now could matter later on.

Dundee and St Johnstone drew 1-1 at Dens Park, in a game that could easily have finished either way.

Both sides had spells on top without ever pulling clear, and the shot count on the day backs up just how tight things were. A draw is rarely the result either team sets out to get, but on this occasion it was a fair reflection of ninety minutes where chances were shared roughly evenly. Below is a closer look at exactly how the numbers from the match broke down.
