Ross County vs Dundee preview - Skipper Brittain banned for County

Ross County will be without captain Richard Brittain through suspension against Dundee.

Defender Darren McCormack is also sidelined with an injury.

County will have to put their anger at being told to replay their abandoned game at Queen of the South behind them.

Manager Jimmy Calderwood said: "Of course we are disappointed at how things have turned out but once the first whistle in this game goes we need to go out and win the game."

"We were two goals up and of course the floodlight failure has cost us for this game against a Dundee side that will want to end talk of them being involved in a relegation dogfight as soon as possible."

Dundee are again without striker Sean Higgins as they look for the win that ensures their First Division survival.

The Dark Blues won 3-1 at Morton last weekend and manager Barry Smith is looking for more of the same.

He said: "The boys were great last weekend and we need that same level of performance in this game.

"We need to win the game to finally secure our status and that has been my aim since I came into things last October.

"I have sympathy for Ross County after their midweek game was abandoned when they were winning, but we have to go out looking for the three points in this one."
