The Daily Record reports that Lachie Rose and Mehdi Merghem are doubtful for Saturday’s game against Aberdeen, after Rose rolled an ankle at St Johnstone and Merghem remained out of training with a knee problem, while Jim Goodwin challenged United’s strikers to score more. United begin the weekend sixth, one point above seventh-placed Aberdeen.

Aberdeen have won one of their four league games away from home so far. The club says Kevin Nisbet’s goal against St Mirren was his thirteenth of the season.

Saturday’s referee is David Dickinson, with Nick Walsh on VAR. Earlier this season, Dickinson showed Daniel Bennie a red card against St Mirren, before VAR got it downgraded to a yellow.

Loan Watch. The Courier reports that Sam Cleall-Harding faces a considerable spell out at Dunfermline after a serious hamstring injury in last Saturday’s goalless draw with Livingston, with a specialist assessment due and surgery not ruled out.
