St. Johnstone form and stats

St. Johnstone's struggle is real here at McDiarmid Park with only 7 points collected from 12 Premiership games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 1-4-7. With eight home Premiership games in a row without a win, the St. Johnstone fans could feel they are not getting value for their money. It remains to be seen whether this unfortunate streak, which started after the Dundee game long ago, can be stopped today.

A good away victory last time out for Johnstone, who won 2-1 against Livingston (placed 8th). The attacker Hendry won the honour of being "man of the match" for St. Johnstone with a rating of 7.64/10. Hendry scored one goal, hit one key pass and dribled past the opponent 2 of 3 times.

The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 0-0 versus Dundee.

There will be little rest for St. Johnstone after this match as they are travelling to St. Mirren for a Premiership game in only four days.

Johnstone have scored 9 league goals here from 12 matches, not a lot. St. Johnstone's goalkeeper has had to pick the ball out of their own net 17 times. For more goal stats, check the Statistics tab above.

It was a defeat before that one as the away game against Celtic wasn't a success with a 0-1 loss.
