Ryan Dow's opener and Euan Murray's seventh of the season put them in a commanding position at the break, before Dale Hilson pulled one back for the hosts to make it nervy.

GOAL Motherwell 1-2 St Johnstonepublished at 16:35 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2020
David Wotherspoon
Wow, what a goal that was.
Electric pace from Michael O'Halloran down the right carved open the Motherwell defence. His thudded cross appeared to go straight in at the back post, but it was David Wotherspoon who got the final touch.
Dundee putting up a fightpublished at 16:34 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2020
Hibernian 1-0 Dundee
Dundee are still in this one as they put some pressure on the hosts. Alex Jakubiak looks lively and Dundee boss James McPake has thrown on former Hearts man Osman Sow in search of a leveller.
They equalised around this stage in the final group game a fortnight ago before going onto to ship a further three goals in a 4-1 defeat.

GOAL Motherwell 1-1 St Johnstonepublished at 16:26 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2020
Callum Hendry
Motherwell have just shot themselves in the foot.
Slack play at the back allowed Michael O'Halloran to cut the ball back. Goalkeeper Aaron Chapman's outstretched leg tees up Callum Hendry, who taps in.
GOAL Arbroath 1-2 Dunfermlinepublished at 16:21 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2020
Dale Hilson
Dale Hilson, who came on as a substitute at half-time, gives Arbroath a lifeline.
GOAL Motherwell 1-0 St Johnstonepublished at 16:19 Greenwich Mean Time 28 November 2020
Tony Watt
Out of nowhere, Motherwell take the lead.
It's a free-kick into the box that is not cleared by St Johnstone which is shuffled through to Tony Watt. The former Saints man is unmarked in the area and sweeps the ball under Zander Clark.
