Our prediction for this Scottish Premiership match:
The SMISA Stadium will host Saturday’s football game between St. Mirren and Kilmarnock. The Saints aim to build on a 3-1 win over Dundee and a triumph over Kilmarnock will see them book their spot in the Conference League. Defender Scott Tanser serves a one-game ban, while midfielder Hyeok-kyu Kwon remains on the sidelines with a hamstring injury.
The Killie, on the other hand, experienced all sorts of problems at the back in a 4-1 loss to Rangers. Kilmarnock and St. Mirren, though, seem to be evenly matched at the moment. Therefore, we predict that they are going to share the spoils on Matchday 36. Defender Joe Wright is banned for the visiting side, while all Greg Stewart, James Balagizi, and Kyle Magennis are out of contention with injuries. It has to be noted that under 2.5 goals have been netted in five of the previous six meetings between the two sides in the Scottish top flight.
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).
