St Mirren will certainly have been pleased to secure 3 points from their most recent encounter, which saw them run out 3-1 winners in their away fixture against Dundee.  Their share of possession in that meeting was 42%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 7 of which were on target, in contrast to Dundee, who had 10 shots on goal with 4 on target.  

Having lost 14 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Stephen Robinson 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 8 goals they scored.  They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games but have only managed to keep 2 clean sheets in those 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 manager Derek McInnes will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 4-1 away defeat by Rangers.  They achieved 26% possession in that match and had 4 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Rangers' tally of 40 efforts at goal, 15 of which were on target.  

McInnes will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 10 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 7 goals and, as a result, lost some important points.  Their goal scoring streak away from home now stands at 8 games in a row, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 when on their travels.  

Whilst they have only lost 1 of their last 6 away games there will be concern over the amount of points dropped with 4 draws from those games.  They've had an unusually high number of draws when playing away from home this season, with 8 draws in 17 away league games.  

Marley Watkins will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 3 goals in the last 6 league outings for Kilmarnock.
