Match Info
Saint Johnstone secured a narrow 1-0 home victory over Arbroath in the Scottish Championship at McDiarmid Park on January 3, 2026. The only goal of the game came in the first half, a close-range finish after a goalmouth scramble from a corner kick. Arbroath defended stoutly for much of the match and had a few opportunities on the counter-attack, but they could not find a way past the Saint Johnstone goalkeeper. The home side controlled possession but found it difficult to break down a resilient Arbroath defense to add to their lead. The three points were crucial for Saint Johnstone, keeping them in touch with the league leaders, while Arbroath could take heart from a disciplined performance despite the defeat. The Saint Johnstone manager emphasized the importance of winning tight games, and the Arbroath coach praised his team's effort but lamented the concession from a set-piece.
