St Johnstone, Recent FormThe St Johnstone players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Livingston recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat. They achieved 42% possession in that match and had 25 strikes at goal, with 7 hitting the target, up against Livingston's tally of 15 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
Having scored 5 goals and conceded 11 in their last 6 games, they will need to improve at both ends if they are to pick up more points from here on. They have been unable to score at home in 3 of their last 6 games, and have conceded a goal in each of their the last 8 games at McDiarmid Park.
St Johnstone will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form, having lost 4 league games in a row.
Ross County, Recent FormRoss County manager Don Cowie will need to rebuild confidence in his squad after their heavy 5-1 home defeat by Motherwell. Their share of possession in that meeting was 55%, while racking up 14 shots along the way, 2 of which were on target. Motherwell had 14 shots on goal with 7 on target.
Cowie is sure to be taking a close look at his defence, who have given away 13 goals over the last 6 matches and yet amazingly still managed to collect some valuable points during this poor defensive spell due to their 7 goals scored. They have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 21 games, and playing away from home this season, they've failed to score in 10 of their 18 games.
Ross County will not be enjoying their recent run of poor form on the road. They've lost their last 7 league games in a row away from home and not recorded a win on their travels in 16 games.
On an individual basis, Simon Murray will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 4 goals in Ross County's last 6 league games.
Last time these two teams met in the league it ended in disappointment for Ross County, losing 0-1 to St Johnstone.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league, The Staggies have been unable to break through St Johnstone's defence and find the back of the net. The Ross County defence tends to hold pretty firm when they visit The Saints in the league, with Ross County conceding just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
St Johnstone has won the last 2 games they've played against Ross County in the league.
St Johnstone manager Craig Levein has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Diallang Jaiyesimi (Knee), Ross Sinclair (Arm) and Sven Sprangler (Knee surgery) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Don Cowie has a number of injury concerns in his Ross County squad to contend with: Scott Allardice (Knee), Ross Callachan (Cruciate ligament) and Dylan Smith (Ankle)
