High-flying St. Mirren will be looking to make it three wins on the bounce when they take on struggling Motherwell on Sunday. The Saints have beaten Falkirk and St Johnstone in their last two outings, and their overall numbers are impressive, with 60% wins across their last 10 matches. St Mirren have also scored an average of 2.50 goals per game during that period, while Killian Phillips has emerged as a key attacking threat. Keanu Baccus and goalkeeper Ryan Mullen remain sidelined.
Motherwell, meanwhile, are desperate for a response after a miserable spell. They have lost their last three matches in all competitions, including a disappointing 1-0 defeat to Stenhousemuir in the League Cup, before suffering another loss to Freiburg in the Conference League. The visitors have conceded 1.40 goals per game across their last 10, while their away xG of just 0.95 suggests further attacking problems. Jordan McGhee and Callum Hendry are both unavailable.
As the Saints in much better form and have won back-to-back matches, we are tempted to place our bets on Home Win, alongside St. Mirren Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total (St Mirren's recent matches average a huge 4.30 goals per game).
This Scottish Premiership match will be played on Sunday 30 August 2026 at 15:00.
