7-9-13 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Hamilton Academical when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 29 matches are 31-48 (scored/conceded).

There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.

The visitors are returning home after this fixture, hosting Clyde in just three days.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Hamilton Academical as they have only managed to score 7 times from 10 away games in the league.
