St Mirren, Recent FormSt Mirren boss Stephen Robinson will need to instil positive feelings within his team after they endured a 3-0 home mauling from Celtic. During that encounter they had 27% possession and had 3 attempts on goal with 0 on target, while their opponents hit 11 of their 24 shots on goal.
It's fair to say that Robinson will be pretty happy with his squad's ability to find the net of late, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 matches. That said, he will also be aware there is still work to do at the back, where they have shipped 6 goals in those same matches as well as some valuable points. They have failed to score in 4 of their last 6 games; however, when playing at home this season, they've notched up 5 clean sheets in 11 games.
Their current form can't be viewed positively, having clocked up 3 losses from their last 6 games and only 2 wins to speak of.
Rangers, Recent FormLast time out, Rangers recorded an impressive 3-0 away win against Hibernian. They came away from that fixture with a 61% share of the possession and clocked up 22 attempts on goal with 8 on target, in comparison to Hibernian, who managed 9 attempts on goal, 3 of which were on target.
It's been a rewarding period in front of goal, with 14 goals scored in their last 6 matches; that said, boss Philippe Clement will be less happy with his defence, who have conceded 4 goals in the same period. They've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 away games, and this season they have scored in 10 of their 11 games played on the road.
This has been a great run of form for them over the past 6 matches, during which they've managed to secure 5 victories. It's been a good season so far with them having won 16 of their 21 league games.
With 3 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Rangers, James Tavernier will be looking to add more goals against St Mirren in this match.
In the previous league meeting between these two sides, it was Rangers that came out on top with a 2-0 win.
During the last 3 times these two teams have met in the league, St Mirren have been unable to break through The Gers' defence and find the back of the net. The Gers will feel sure their attacking prowess will yield results in this one, having scored at least 1 goal in the previous 32 encounters with St Mirren. In their recent meetings Rangers have had no problem breaking down The Buddies' defence, having found the back of the net 14 times in their last 5 games. The Rangers defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit The Buddies in the league, with Rangers conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
Rangers will be looking to continue their winning streak against St Mirren, having won each of the last 4 times they have met in the league and being unbeaten in their last 22 meetings.
Kemar Roofe has given Rangers' travelling fans plenty to shout about in their past visits to The SMISA Stadium, having scored 4 goals in their last 3 meetings there.
There is only really one injury concern for the St Mirren manager Stephen Robinson ahead of this clash, with Ryan Strain (Groin strain) missing out, which gives Robinson a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
Philippe Clement has a number of injury concerns in his Rangers squad to contend with: Ben Davies (Unknown), Steven Davis (Cruciate ligament), Kieran Dowell (Unknown), Danilo Pereira da Silva (Knee), Kemar Roofe (Unknown) and Abdallah Sima (Thigh)
