St. Mirren - Rangers predictions

Upsets do happen in football and it’s fair to say a home win here would be a definition of the case. St. Mirren can count themselves lucky if they avoid getting completely destroyed by Rangers in this match.

A trip to St. Mirren can hardly be seen as a big test for Rangers. With 1.40 betting odds stacked in their favour, it’s hard seeing past anything other than a compelling away win here.

St. Mirren’s victory was priced at around 15.00 in the previous round, so the 3:0 defeat at the hands of Celtic wasn’t much of a surprise. They managed to put up a decent fight in the first half, though, despite the home-field disadvantage and overwhelming odds against them.

Rangers are coming off from a disheartening 0:0 away draw against Dundee in the last round of the Premiership. Despite Rangers being considered clear favourites, the entire match was spent in a deadlock.

St. Mirren’s recent performances have raised some questions about their defence. They conceded 6 goals throughout their latest three Premiership matches and betting on Over 4.5 seems like a reasonable option.

With 6 goals in their own net over the last 3 matches, Rangers’s defence leaves a lot to be desired.

The away team are seen as favourites despite their role as the visitors, and that makes a lot of sense considering the previous clash with St. Mirren they had. Rangers pulled far ahead of their opponents and secured a decisive victory.

With no players out due to injury or suspension, both teams will have their full lineups ready for a thrilling showdown.

Based on both teams’ previous performances, an Over 2.5 Goals bet is very likely to win. The returns are somewhat limited at the odds of 1.68, but it’s still an incredibly safe bet.
