Livingston 1-0 Queen of the South
- From the section Scottish Championship
Livingston clinched Scottish Championship safety with victory over Queen of the South.
Mark Burchill's side started the day ninth and could have moved up or down a place, depending on results.
Myles Hippolyte's shot was saved by Queens keeper Zander Clark before Danny Mullen won a penalty for the hosts.
Kyle Jacobs converted and victory meant Livi finished above relegation play-off bound Alloa Athletic and Cowdenbeath, who are automatically demoted.
Queens had already sealed their promotion play-off berth and will play Rangers on 9 and 17 May with Hibernian awaiting in the semi-final and the final to feature the team finishing second bottom of the Premiership.
