Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
Buoyed by a splendid 2-1 win over star-studded Rangers, Ross County will look to give fans yet another reason to celebrate when they face Dundee FC on Matchday 20. The Saints are on a three-game winning run and they must be brimming with confidence ahead of Sunday’s clash. A man to watch in the home team will be Oisin Smyth, who has found his goal-scoring touch of late, while defender Scott Tenser is back from suspension.
The Dark Blues, on the other hand, suffered a dip in form, losing each of their last three league matches. Given their shaky defence, we predict that the hosts are going to pick up all three points from Sunday’s encounter. Republic of Ireland defender Joseph Shaughnessy should be the only absentee in the away team, while midfielder Finlay Robertson returns to the starting line-up.
Highlighted Team (St Mirren):
St Mirren are Scottish football club that compete in the Scotland Premier League. Founded in 1877, the Buddies play home games at St Mirren Park. The venue, which was built in 2009, can hold up to 8,000 spectators.
St Mirren are well known for their white and black home kit, while black and violet are the dominant colours of their away kit. 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.
The Buddies recorded their biggest win on January 30, 1960, with the team crushing Glasgow University 15-0 in the Scottish Cup. David McCrae is leading the club’s all-time goal-scoring chart with 221 league goals. St Mirren have won the Scotland Premiership three times (1925/26, 1958/59, 1986/87).
