Saturday’s Championship match between Ayr United and Raith Rovers at Somerset Park has been postponed due to a coronavirus outbreak.
Ayr United requested that the SPFL postpone the fixture as, due to six players having tested positive and a number of players self isolating, they do not have sufficient players available to fulfil the fixture.
An SPFL spokesman said: “After reviewing the information provided by Ayr United, Saturday’s match between Ayr United and Raith Rovers has been postponed and a further update will be provided in due course.”
Ayr were without four players for Saturday's 1-0 defeat at Inverness Caledonian Thistle after three tested positive and another was self-isolating.
We can confirm Saturday’s cinch Championship match at home to @RaithRovers at Somerset Park has been postponed.
