Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
St. Mirren and Dundee United square off against each other at the SMISA Stadium in what is expected to be a close Premiership encounter. The Saints have been having their ups and downs of late, with the team sharing the spoils with Kilmarnock, beating Hearts, while losing to Motherwell and they continue with their old habit of producing fine displays at home, while struggling on the travels.
Even though defender Scott Tanser misses out through suspension, we predict that the hosts are going to grab something from Saturday’s encounter. The Terrors, meanwhile, head into the match following a thrilling 3-3 draw with Kilmarnock. Dundee United, though, have conceded five goals in total in the previous two away games in all competitions, which is probably the main reason why home win should be considered. Jim Goodwin should have a full squad to choose from.
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.

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.
