Prediction: 1-1
St Mirren
Dens Park will host Saturday’s Premiership game between Dundee and St. Mirren, the two bottom-table sides. Dundee aim to put an end to their seven-game winless run, and they are likely to leave their hearts on the field. Both Adam and McGinn are pushing for a start, whilst all Sheridan, Marshall, and Ashcroft are likely to miss the game with injuries. The Saints, on the other hand, aim to build on back-to-back wins over Dundee United and Aberdeen.
St. Mirren have been impressive at the back of late, and seeing that Dundee managed to keep a clean sheet in the previous two games in all competitions, a low-scoring affair is on the cards at Dens Park. As for the visiting side, experienced defender Conor McCarthy is sidelined with a long-term injury. In the first half of the season Dundee defeated St. Mirren thanks to Max Anderson’s goal.
