Gary RedknappFootball AnalystMATCH REPORT

Alfie Stewart's first-half strike gave Inverness Caledonian Thistle a 1-0 win over St. Johnstone in the League Cup, sending them into a meeting with Greenock Morton next. The midfielder's 16th-minute goal proved the difference in a tight, scrappy affair that never truly caught fire.

The match turned in the 16th minute when Stewart found the net for the home side, his unassisted strike giving Inverness the lead. Morgan Boyes went into the book for St. Johnstone on 36 minutes, and Stewart himself was cautioned on 66, but neither side could force a second goal.

Despite the narrow scoreline, the game was evenly poised — possession was split at 50% each, though Inverness dominated corners six to two and controlled both halves on the pitch. Alfie Stewart was the standout, scoring the only goal, earning a 9.41 rating as a midfielder. CheckLive's model rated St. Johnstone marginally ahead, but the result did not confirm that, and the live signal backing the visitors at 3.5 was lost. Inverness now face Greenock Morton on 25 July.
