Kilmarnock, Recent FormLast time out for Kilmarnock resulted in a perhaps unsurprising 2-2 draw against Dundee in a match they really wanted to win. In that game they had 62% possession and managed 22 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Dundee who had 10 attempts and 3 on target.
It seems pretty certain that Derek McInnes will be quite pleased with his squad's ability to score goals in recent matches, having managed 6 goals in their past 6 outings. In contrast, however, he will be concerned that their defensive qualities look a little more fragile, with 7 goals conceded in those matches and some crucial points dropped. They have only kept 2 clean sheets in their last 6 home games.
They've had a less than ideal run of form recently, winning just 1 of their last 6 games.
St Mirren, Recent FormSt Mirren will be very happy having secured 3 points in their last match with a significant 1-0 home win against Hearts. They achieved 31% possession in that match and had 13 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Hearts' tally of 11 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
Manager Stephen Robinson 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. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They have been performing well recently, both home and away, and remain unbeaten in their last 6 games.
Mark O'Hara has scored 3 goals in the last 6 away games and will be looking to add more in this fixture against Kilmarnock.
Kilmarnock recorded a 0-2 win last time these two sides went head to head in the league.
In their last 3 league meetings with Kilmarnock, The Buddies have not been on scoring form, not managing a single goal. Playing at home, Kilmarnock have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against St Mirren.
When playing away from home in the league, St Mirren have failed to win any of their last 9 meetings with Kilmarnock, with the last 3 of those games ending in a draw.
With only Liam Donnelly (Calf) and Corrie Ndaba (Ankle) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Derek McInnes will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
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.
