St Johnstone, Recent FormLosing 3-1 away to Celtic won't leave the St Johnstone squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 9 places above them in the league. They achieved 26% possession in that match and had 6 strikes at goal, with 2 hitting the target, up against Celtic's tally of 21 efforts at goal, 9 of which were on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 5 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 11 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home games.
They have been on a bad run over their last 6 league matches, with 4 defeats and only 1 victory, so they know full well that a change of form is needed if they want to begin moving up the league table.
Dundee, Recent FormDundee will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 1-0 home win against Aberdeen. Their share of possession in that meeting was 54%, while racking up 18 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target. Aberdeen had 9 shots on goal with 2 on target.
Their boss Tony Docherty is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 12 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 9 goals scored. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 away games.
They've had a bad run of form away from home recently, having lost 4 of their last 6 on the road and managing just 1 win.
Luke McCowan will be aiming to add his name to the scoresheet again to extend his goal tally of 4 goals in the last 6 league outings for Dundee.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Dundee that came out on top with a 2-1 win.
The Dee have conceded at least one goal in each of their last 3 league meetings with St Johnstone.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that these 2 sides have met at McDiarmid Park in the league, but St Johnstone will take some small comfort in being unbeaten in their last 6 meetings there.
St Johnstone manager Craig Levein has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Ali Crawford (Calf), Cammy MacPherson (Thigh), Ross Sinclair (Arm) and Drey Wright (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Tony Docherty has a number of injury concerns in his Dundee squad to contend with: Ryan Howley (Unknown), Jordan McGhee (Calf) and Diego Pineda (Unknown)
