Dundee midfielder Paul McHale could be facing months on the injury list, with fears that he may have suffered medial ligament damage in his knee. What at first seemed a run-of-the-mill training incident has resulted in a serious problem for the player, who has been a key man for the Dark Blues since joining in January. McHale will be sent to see a specialist next week to discover the extent of the damage, and manager Alex Rae is hoping for a positive outcome. Meanwhile Danny Griffin should play at centre half again, he looked a much better player last week. It will be a tough game against Partick Thistle who are not safe from the drop yet.
