Rangers - St. Mirren predictions

Rangers are likely on their way to a decisive victory, and it’s hard to feel optimistic about the visitors’ prospects. Bookmakers are pricing a home win at 1.25, which is quite in line with most expert opinions.

The current perspective makes the situation plain as day. Given the superiority of Rangers and the 12.00 odds given to St. Mirren to win, it is clear that anything but a home win would be a stunning upset.

The hosts are coming on the back of a letdown in their most recent matchup at Kilmarnock. The bookies saw their victory as the most likely outcome despite the home-field disadvantage, but the score was still a draw by the time the second half came around. After that, they fell behind and ended up losing the match 1:0.

St. Mirren are coming on the back of a harsh 4:0 away defeat. Their opponents TEAM_NAME were hard favourites, and St. Mirren never managed to recover from the early lead the home team took.

The only observable trend we can see from looking at the hosts’ history is that their visiting games are rarely spectacular. The last two both ended with fewer than 2 goals in total.

With 7 goals in their own net over the last 3 matches, St. Mirren’s defence leaves a lot to be desired.

If Rangers managed to keep the form they had last season, this match won’t be a big problem for them. They defeated St. Mirren more than once that year, and every instance was a decisive result with a goal difference of over 2.

With zero injuries reported across the board, this is shaping up to be an exciting outing indeed. Both teams will have their complete squads at their disposal, so we can fully expect them to bring their A-game.

At the odds of 1.25 at William Hill, we couldn’t recommend anything but a Home Win. The hosts are clear favourites in this matchup, and we’re very confident they’ll come out on top.
