Err what? They are 4 points behind with only 1 game remaining

There's not only one game left. The league plays 38 games, 33 before the league splits in half, then 5 more.

Ah right I forg9t about the championship format, does nobody really care about the winner of this first format of the league?

Nah, it's all about the result after 38. The only teams that might care are those competing to make the top 6, as it means higher profile games, more chance of being on TV, safety from relegation and possibly a chance at European qualification.

The game tonight doesn't impact that though, because of results at the weekend - had things been different, Dundee might have needed to win to clinch a top 6 spot, but as it turns out that's already secured.
