Dundee United’s trip to face Dunfermline Athletic next month has been rearranged to accommodate live TV coverage.

The match will now take place on Friday, March 15, with a 7.45pm kick-off.

It is the second time BBC Scotland have opted to screen this fixture this season, with United’s last trip to East End Park ending in a dramatic 2-1 win for the Tangerines in front of their cameras.

The Terrors currently sit atop the Championship following a narrow win at Ayr United last Saturday and hope to extend their advantage to seven points when they face Raith Rovers next Friday night.

Dunfermline, meanwhile, are reeling from a 5-0 home loss against Morton.
