Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Saturday's football game at Fir Park pits together Motherwell vs St. Mirren, the two teams who are almost level on points in the Premiership standings. The Well aim to recover from a 2-1 loss to Aberdeen and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach in Saturday’s clash. Jack Vale is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while all Sam Nicholson, John Koutroumbis, and Callum Slattery remain on the sidelines with injuries.
The Saints, on the other hand, aim to build on a 2-1 win over Hearts, but beating Motherwell at Fir Park is easier said than done. Taking everything into account, both sides should be happy with one point from the match. In their last meeting in the national championship the two teams played out a 1-1 draw. Defender Alex Iacovitti should be the only absentee in the away team.
Highlighted Team (Motherwell):
Motherwell are professional football club that compete in the Scotland Premiership. The Steelmen play home games at Fir Park, the stadium which can hold up to 13,677 spectators, wearing amber and claret shirts.
White, on the other hand, is the dominant colour of the club’s away kit. Founded in 1886, Motherwell won their first domestic trophy in the 1931/32 season, leaving Scottish giants Rangers and Celtic behind them in the standings. Speaking of the Scottish Cup, the Steelmen have two titles in the cup competition. In the 1951/52 season, Motherwell defeated Dundee 4-0 in the Scottish Cup final, with the team repeating the success 39 years later as they outplayed Dundee United 4-3 in the title game.
The likes of Hamilton Academical and Airdrieonians are regarded as the club’s bitterest rivals. The games between these clubs are known as the Lanarkshire derby. Hughie Ferguson is leading the club’s all-time goal-scoring chart as he netted 284 goals for the Steelmen in league matches.
