St. Johnstone - Ross County predictions

St. Johnstone have a big mountain to climb. The task ahead is difficult but not impossible but with 2.67 slapped on home win in this match, this one is for the risk-takers.

With the betting odds being what they are, this match could still go either way. Still, the fact that Ross County are generally the weaker team makes this match an uphill battle for them.

St. Johnstone’s painful defeat in their previous away match could have been seen from a mile away. They were facing Rangers as visitors, so betting predictions never gave them much of a shot. The home team took an early lead which culminated in a 2:0 loss for St. Johnstone.

Ross County’s previous Premiership outing was very uneven in their opponents’ favour. Although the match was played at Ross County’s home stadium, their chances to beat Celtic were very low. They somehow managed to end the first half ahead – but the surprising lead melted away in the second half, resulting in a 1:2 loss.

A high concessions rate is not a good look to have, and St. Johnstone have been on a downward spiral when it comes to their defensive performance. With 5 goals conceded over their past 3 games, there’s definite room for improvement.

Ross County’s recent track record shows a very concerning amount of concessions – 6 of them in their previous 3 matches, to be exact. While it’s obvious their defence has a lot of problems, Over markets might be a good option for this match.

We see several draws on record between these two teams in the past season alone. St. Johnstone may be the favourites, but it’s becoming very clear that they can’t easily beat Ross County.

If you’re looking for a relatively safe bet, this match can offer one with a Double Chance on Home or Draw. Priced at 1.45, it is extremely likely to be successful – even though the returns may be limited.
