Kilmarnock v Greenock Morton is the only one of Wednesday's Scottish Championship matches to go ahead.

Partick Thistle v Ayr United and Dunfermline Athletic v Inverness Caley Thistle have been called off due to waterlogged pitches.

Covid outbreaks at Hamilton and Queen of the South had led to postponements at Arbroath and Raith Rovers.

The Scottish Professional Football League on Tuesday granted Hamilton Academical's request to call off their game away to leaders Arbroath. Raith Rovers' match at home to Queen of the South had already been postponed on the request of the visitors.

Accies and the Dumfries club reported that they had insufficient fit players.

The SPFL ruling is that clubs must play if they have 13 fit registered players - of which at least one must be a goalkeeper, 11 must be outfield players and 10 must be aged 18 or over.

Kilmarnock, two points behind Caley Thistle, will overtake Raith Rovers and Inverness with a win over bottom of the table Greenock Morton, having won their opening game under caretaker James Fowler, 3-2 in Hamilton on Sunday, after the sacking of Tommy Wright.

The Ayrshire side have already beaten Morton, who have gone five league games without a win, twice in the Championship this season after also edging out the Greenock visitors on penalties in the League Cup.

Meanwhile, the one fixture scheduled in League 1, Airdrieonians hosting promotion rivals Queen's Park goes ahead.

The Hampden side have slipped to fourth, two points behind the third-top Diamonds, after a run of just one win in eight outings. The two sides each won penalty shoot-outs against one another after draws in the League Cup and Challenge Cup this season before a goalless league encounter in Glasgow in September.
