St Johnstone and St Mirren sit at opposite ends of the Scottish Premiership table with eleven points separating the two sides, however we envisage a closely-fought affair when they meet at McDiarmid Park tonight.
St Johnstone have been struggling since the start of the season and their woes continued last weekend when they went down 3-1 to Scottish Premiership leaders Celtic. As things stand, the Perth side sit in the relegation zone after fourteen rounds of fixtures and their defensive frailties suggest that their struggles will continue in the weeks and months ahead.
Manager Craig Levein still has plenty of things to turn things around and haul his side away from danger and there is hope that the side’s form on home soil could assist them in their battle against relegation to the Championship. Both of St Johnstone’s two league wins have been at McDiarmid Park and they will be hoping to add a third when St Mirren pay a visit tonight.
St Mirren struggled for possession when losing 2-0 to Rangers at Ibrox last weekend and they have dropped down to fourth position in the Scottish Premiership table on the back of a poor run of form which has seen them lose four, draw one and win one of their last six games. The Buddies will take some confidence from the fact that they demolished St Johnstone to the tune of 4-0 when the sides met earlier in the season and a win for the visitors tonight would be hugely welcomed at this stage of the season.
Nevertheless, while St Mirren will be confident of claiming a maximum points haul here, we envisage it being far from straightforward for the visitors. Both teams will be lacking in confidence after some poor recent form and as such, we envisage this being a cagey affair which seems most likely to end with the points being shared.
