St. Mirren - Kilmarnock predictions

The visiting team knows the task they face will not be easy. Beating St. Mirren on their own turf would be a major accomplishment, and it is always a formidable challenge.

Out of their home field and heading into this match as underdogs, Kilmarnock would need to play their best to have a hope of winning. That said, even a draw would be a positive outcome, and all three results are quite possible.

St. Mirren were not exactly favourites in their previous Premiership clash but they still ended up claiming a rather convincing Dundee victory after keeping it level after 45 minutes.

Kilmarnock are coming off from a crushing 4:1 away loss against Rangers in the previous round. Rangers were considered far stronger going in – so much so that even the draw at half time was slightly unexpected.

With more than 5 conceded goals over their latest 3 fixtures, St. Mirren’s performance leaves something to be desired. That said, savvy punters could be able to exploit this – think BTTS or Over 5 Goals markets, for example.

Kilmarnock recorded 6 goals in all 3 of their latest home games. While they don’t have the home-field advantage in this match, an action-packed match seems very likely.

This is the second time these two teams will clash as part of the current Premiership season. Kilmarnock won the first time around, though it was a rather close victory and most bookies are expecting this match to end differently.

If you’re looking for a relatively safe bet, this match can offer one with a Double Chance on Home or Draw. Priced at 1.46, it is extremely likely to be successful – even though the returns may be limited.
