Prediction: 1-1
St Mirren
Global Energy Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between Ross County and St. Mirren, the two teams who sit in the opposite halves of the table. The Staggies aim to put an end to their three-game winless run and we are positive that they will adopt an attack-minded approach this time out. All Josh Reid, Josh Sims, and Ben Paton are out of contention with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Saints, on the other hand, aim to recover from a 3-0 loss to Rangers, but it has to be noted that they were beaten by Ross County in the previous two meetings between the two teams at Global Energy Stadium. Anyhow, a close encounter is on the cards at Global Energy Stadium and we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on draw. St. Mirren midfielder Ryan Strain is banned for the match, while Jonah Ayunga misses out with an ACL injury.
