Dundee and St Johnstone couldn't be separated at Dens Park on Wednesday, 2 September 2026, with the two sides sharing the points in a 1-1 draw. It was goalless at the break, both defences holding firm through a first half that never quite sparked into life. The second period had more to it, with each team finding the net once to leave the scoreline level by full time. Neither side will be overly satisfied with a point, though neither will feel hard done by either. Dundee will look back on missed chances to push for more, while St Johnstone can take some encouragement from digging out an equaliser away from home. In a tight-looking Premiership table, this draw does little to change the picture for either club, but it keeps both unbeaten in recent memory and sets up plenty still to play for as the season builds.
