Motherwell, Recent FormLast time out, Motherwell went away feeling content with a 1-0 away win against Hearts During that encounter they had 32% possession and had 8 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 1 of their 18 shots on goal.
Manager Stuart Kettlewell will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, having scored 10 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 6 goals conceded in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 19 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They've had a good run of form at home recently, with 5 straight wins in a row.
St Mirren, Recent FormSt Mirren manager Stephen Robinson will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 1-1 draw in his team's last league outing against Livingston. They achieved 51% possession in that match and had 7 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Livingston's tally of 13 efforts at goal, 2 of which were on target.
Robinson will be shining a spotlight on his team's poor defensive record of late, having conceded 12 goals in their last 6 games, despite picking up a modest amount of points due in no small part to the 8 goals they managed at the other end. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games, but they have failed to record a clean sheet in their last 11 games overall.
They've had a poor run of form on the road recently, losing 3 of their last 6 away games and managing only 1 win.
On an individual basis, Mark O'Hara will be looking to cause Motherwell some problems having scored 3 goals in St Mirren's last 6 away games in the league.
It was one to forget for St Mirren last time they met Motherwell in the league, falling to a 2-1 defeat.
When playing at home against The Buddies, Motherwell have scored at least one goal for 4 games in succession.
St Mirren have lost the last 2 times they've have visited Motherwell in the league and have failed to win any of their last 4 encounters at Fir Park Stadium.

There is only really one injury concern for the St Mirren manager Stephen Robinson ahead of this clash, with Jonah Ayunga (Cruciate ligament) missing out, which gives Robinson a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
