Dundee United’s top-flight fixtures in full revealed including 2020/21 opener, TV games and Rangers, Celtic and Aberdeen matches

Dundee United’s top-flight return kicks off on August 1 at home to Tayside rivals St Johnstone.

The Scottish Premiership fixtures, released this morning, also revealed the Tangerines’ first live TV game will take place ten days later at Tannadice against Hibs.
