The match between Dundee and Rangers has been postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
A second pitch inspection at 10.15am has led to the fixture being called off just 90 minutes from the scheduled kick-off time.
An initial inspection at 9.15am was held before a second inspection by match referee Don Robertson who decided the game could not go ahead.
A Rangers statement read: "GAME OFF: Today’s match against Dundee has been postponed.
"The club will make further comment in due course."
A Dundee update added: "Following the referee’s second pitch inspection this morning, today’s cinch Premiership match with Rangers has been postponed.

"Recent rainfall has meant the pitch has become waterlogged and the match has been called off."
It's understood the Rangers squad had just arrived when the decision for the match to be postponed was confirmed.
A local referee had attended Dens Park for the initial inspection but no decision was made with a second inspection planned for match referee Don Robertson.
And when Robertson arrived for the 10.15am inspection the ball would roll on the pitch but did not bounce leading to the call-off.
