Ross County, Recent FormRoss County will not be too disheartened with their 4-2 away defeat at the hands of Celtic who sit so many places above them in the table. Their share of possession in that meeting was 25%, while racking up 7 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target, in contrast to Celtic, who had 18 shots on goal with 12 on target.
Having lost 12 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Malky Mackay will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 11 goals they scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
They're experiencing a disappointing spell of form at The Global Energy Stadium, having lost 3 of their last 6 home games and picking up only 2 wins.
Jordan White will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 5 goals in the last 6 league outings for Ross County.
St Johnstone, Recent FormSt Johnstone will not be too troubled by their 2-0 home defeat against Hearts, given the latter currently sit 14 places further up the league table than they do. In that game they had 32% possession and managed 9 attempts on goal, with 3 on target, compared to Hearts who had 16 attempts and 9 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 7 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 7 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 4 of their last 6 away games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
It's been a mixed run of away form for St Johnstone recently, with 2 wins and 2 defeats in their last 6 games on the road.
Stevie May will be keen to get his name on the scoresheet against Ross County in this match, having already scored 4 goals in his last 6 away games for St Johnstone.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 3-3 draw.
The stats show that in the last 3 meetings between The Saints and their rivals, Ross County, the former have conceded at least one goal. The Staggies have struggled to keep St Johnstone at bay when these two teams have met at The Global Energy Stadium, during the last 3 times they have hosted St Johnstone in the league, they have conceded a total of 6 goals.
Jordan White has scored in each of Ross County's last 2 home games against St Johnstone.
With only Ross Callachan (Cruciate ligament) and Ben Paton (Knee) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Malky Mackay will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
St Johnstone manager Steven MacLean has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
