St Mirren, Recent FormSt Mirren manager Stephen Robinson will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 5-2 away defeat by Rangers. Their share of possession in that meeting was 22%, while racking up 5 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target, in contrast to Rangers, who had 23 shots on goal with 11 on target.
Robinson 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 10 goals scored. They have recently found some good scoring form at home, hitting the net in 5 of their last 6 matches at The SMISA Stadium. A number of teams visiting The SMISA Stadium have struggled to break through on goal this season so far with the home side having kept 7 clean sheets.
It's been a mixed run of form for St Mirren recently with 2 wins, 2 draws, and 2 defeats in their last 6 games.
With 6 goals scored in Brentford's last 6 outings in the league, Mark O'Hara has shown a great run of form in finding the back of the net.
Kilmarnock, Recent FormKilmarnock will be looking to regroup after their bruising encounter with Celtic in which they suffered a 4-1 home defeat. They came away from that fixture with a 23% share of the possession and clocked up 14 attempts on goal with 5 on target, in comparison to Celtic, who managed 16 attempts on goal, 6 of which were on target.
Having lost 12 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Derek McInnes will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 6 goals they scored. Up front, they have been showing a certain level of consistency in breaching their opponents' defences, with goals netted in 5 of their last 6 outings. Away from home they have not had their troubles to seek, with at least 1 goal conceded in 15 of their last 16 away league matches this season, making points hard to come by on the road.
Kilmarnock will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form on the road. They've lost their last 6 league games in a row away from home and not recorded a win on their travels in 19 games.
The previous match between these two ended without a goal and a share of the spoils, so it wasn't one to remember on that occasion.
Ahead of this match, Killie won't be happy with their goal stats, having failed to secure a goal against St Mirren in their last 2 meetings.
It has been a share of the points the last 3 times these sides have met in the league, with the game ending in a draw on both occasions; that said, St Mirren may be feeling slightly more positive, having built up a run of 5 matches undefeated against their opponents.
With Jonah Ayunga (Cruciate ligament) being out for the rest of the season and Richard Tait (Groin strain) also unavailable in the shorter term, St Mirren manager Stephen Robinson will be pleased to have no other major fitness concerns going into this tie.
Derek McInnes has a number of injury concerns in his Kilmarnock squad to contend with: Innes Cameron (Hamstring), Ben Chrisene (Knee) and Liam Polworth (Unknown)
