Prediction: 2-0
St Mirren
Global Energy Stadium will host Saturday’s Premiership game between Ross County and St. Mirren. The Staggies have been showing signs of improvement of late, with the team beating both Motherwell and Ross County in the previous two league fixtures. Ross County aim to move closer to the Championship Group berth, and they are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach against St. Mirren.
Midfielder David Cancola is sidelined with a long-term injury, but he should be the only absentee in the home side. The Saints, on the other hand, head into the match following back-to-back losses to Hearts and Celtic. St. Mirren have been struggling in front of goal of late, and they are unlikely to spoil Ross County’s party at Global Energy Stadium. Both Greive and Brophy are pushing for a start after the duo came from the bench in the Celtic Park defeat, while Connor Ronan remains on the sidelines through suspension.
Highlighted Player (Marcus Fraser):
Marcus Fraser is a Scottish footballer who plays for Ross County as a defender. Fraser is a product of Celtic football school, but he made no more than one appearance for the Hoops in the Scottish Premier League. He played his only game for the Scottish giants in a 3-1 win at Inverness on February 9, 2013.
After ending his loan spell with Cowdenbeath, Marcus Fraser signed a deal with Ross County in 2015. Over the years, the defender has established himself as a first-team regular with the Staggies, making 26 appearances in the Scottish top flight last term.
Speaking of his international career, Fraser has five caps for the Scotland U21 team, but he has yet to earn a call-up for the senior team. His main position on the field is a right-back, but he is capable of producing good performances as a centre-back as well. Marcus Fraser was born in Bishopbriggs, Scotland, on June 23, 1994.
Highlighted Team (St Mirren):

The Scottish club played their first match against Johnstone Britannia on October 6, 1877, winning the game by one goal to nil. St Mirren have a bitter rivalry with Greenock Morton, and there have always been fireworks in clashes between the two clubs.
