St Mirren, Recent FormAny St Mirren pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 1-0 away defeat by Livingston. In that game they had 64% possession and managed 21 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Livingston who had 8 attempts and 3 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 5 and seen valuable points lost. They have been unable to score at home in 4 of their last 6 games; however, over the season so far, they've notched up 6 clean sheets in 13 games at The SMISA Stadium.
In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for St Mirren recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.
St Johnstone, Recent FormSt Johnstone will be looking to regroup after their bruising encounter with Rangers in which they suffered a 3-0 home defeat. They achieved 39% possession in that match and had 4 strikes at goal, with 0 hitting the target, up against Rangers' tally of 15 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
Manager Craig Levein will be reasonably pleased with his team's attacking displays in recent matches, having managed to score 4 goals in their last 6 games, but he will have work to do defensively after they conceded 8 goals in those games and dropped some valuable points along the way. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, and playing away from home, they have failed to score in 8 of their 12 games this season.
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. So far this season, the bulk of their league games on the road have ended in disappointment, having won just 1 of their first 12 away games.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for St Johnstone, Ali Crawford will be looking to add more goals against St Mirren in this match.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 1-0 win for St Johnstone.
Playing away from home, St Johnstone have conceded a goal in 3 of their last 3 league games against St Mirren.

Greg Kiltie will be looking to get on the scoresheet for St Mirren against St Johnstone in this one, having netted 3 goals in the previous 5 encounters between the two.
