It's early days in the Premiership and both St. Mirren and Hibernian are still hoping for a flying start in order to set the tone for the season. Three points can make a big difference at this stage.
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.
St. Mirren form and stats
OK but not perfect. That could be the conclusion for St. Mirren's two home games in the Premiership so far this season, having collected 4 points here at The Simple Digital Arena.
Mirren faced defeat in their previous match, away at St. Johnstone (0-1). The spoils were shared after 90 minutes before that, a home game that ended 1-1 versus Ross County.
At The Simple Digital Arena, St. Mirren has the goal stats of 2-1 (for/against) from 2 league fixtures.
Hibernian form and stats
Hibernian, who have the most points (9) away in Premiership, are on a winning streak away after three games, as mentioned below. A maximum 9 points in the bag from 3 travels in the Premiership.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premiership home defeat versus Aberdeen with 0-1 on the scoreboard. Before that one, a nice away victory 1-0 at St. Johnstone.
It's a bit worrying for Hibernian that their goalkeeper Ofir Marciano made six saves in the Aberdeen game last time out, but still couldn''t prevent the loss.
With an average of more than two away goals per league game away, Hibernian are regular goalscorers on their travels. The Hibernian defense is a tough nut to crack, having conceded less than half a goal per away game on average (1 goal in 3 games).
Head 2 Head
