St Johnstone, Recent FormHaving taken all 3 points, with a crucial 2-1 away win over Hibernian in their last league game, St Johnstone will undoubtedly be very satisfied with their work. They came away from that fixture with 29% of the possession and clocked up 6 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Hibernian managed 13 attempts on goal, with 6 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 7, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 9 goals and some valuable points in the process. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games but failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of those games.
A home win for St Johnstone is just a distant memory, having not won at McDiarmid Park in 6 games.
Kilmarnock, Recent FormLast time out, Kilmarnock left content aftera 1-0 home win against Ross County In that game they recorded 56 % of the possession, with 14 attempts on goal, 5 on target. Their opponents found the target on 4 of their 10 shots on goal.
While they have been strong in attack with 12 goals scored in their last 6 games, their defence has let them down slightly, by conceeding 7 at the other end which has led to points being dropped. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 14 games in a row, but they've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games away from home.
Having drawn their last 4 league games away from home and having not won any of their last 5, Killie will be keen to grab all 3 points in this fixture.
Marley Watkins will be hoping to create problems for St Johnstone in this one, having scored 3 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Kilmarnock.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was St Johnstone who ended up empty-handed, losing 2-1 to Kilmarnock.
St Johnstone will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 10 encounters with Killie.
Kilmarnock has a very poor track record against St Johnstone when playing away from home in the league, losing the last 4 times they have met at McDiarmid Park.
Nicky Clark has scored in each of St Johnstone's last 2 league games against Kilmarnock.
St Johnstone manager Craig Levein has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Diallang Jaiyesimi (Knee), Cammy MacPherson (Thigh), Ross Sinclair (Arm), Sven Sprangler (Knee surgery) and Drey Wright (Knee) are all currently out of contention for this game.
With only Brad Lyons (Knee) and Kyle Magennis (Hamstring) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, Derek McInnes will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
