St Mirren, Recent FormThe 2-0 away defeat to Hearts will not have sat easily with the St Mirren squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. In that game they had 46% possession and managed 11 attempts on goal, with 4 on target, compared to Hearts who had 12 attempts and 6 on target.
Having conceded 6 goals and scored just 2 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 4 points. They have failed to score in 5 of their last 6 games.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
Kilmarnock, Recent FormKilmarnock will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 2-1 winners in their home fixture against St Johnstone. Their share of possession in that meeting was 46%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. St Johnstone had 9 shots on goal with 4 on target.
5 goals in 6 matches haven't proved quite enough for them in terms of a return in points, and that's despite having only conceded 3 goals in those 6 games, which shows a pretty solid defensive line. Playing away from home, they're currenlty on a run of 3 consecutive clean sheets.
They have had a good run of form recently, unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 games and picking up 3 wins along the way. So far this season, the bulk of their league games on the road have ended in disappointment, having won just 1 of their first 9 away games.
On an individual basis, David Watson will be looking to cause St Mirren some problems having scored 2 goals in Kilmarnock's last 6 away games in the league.
In the last match between these two, goals were scored on both sides, with the game ending in a 1-1 draw.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league at The SMISA Stadium, St Mirren have been unable to break through the visitor's defence and find the back of the net.
St Mirren has had a poor run of results against Kilmarnock having not won any of their last 5 meetings.
With only Ryan Flynn (Hamstring) and Ryan Strain (Groin strain) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Stephen Robinson will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
There is only really one injury concern for the Kilmarnock manager Derek McInnes ahead of this clash, with Innes Cameron (Hamstring) missing out, which gives McInnes a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
