St. Mirren vs Ross County Prediction: The two teams are playing on the same level

Paisley 2021 Stadium will hold the Scottish Premiership game between St. Mirren and Ross County. This season, both teams have the same points, 11, and will look to improve their records. How will this game unfold?

St. Mirren showed character in their midweek game against St Johnstone, which ended 3-1, and they will look to be at their best again. In that game, Scott Tanser, Mark O’Hara, and Jonah Ayunga’s strikes were enough to overturn the game for this side, having gone behind in the early minutes. However, prior encounters to that win saw St. Mirren lose four consecutive games to Motherwell, Dundee United, Hearts, and Rangers. This season, St. Mirren have 11 points from 11 matches and sit 7th in the league log.

Ross County settled for a goalless draw with Hibernian during the week and will look to do better in this weekend's game. In that encounter, Ross County had 46 percent of the possession and attempted 13 shots while failing to net any. However, the road team's recent games show they have only one win in six matches, a 2-1 win over Kilmarnock. In other encounters, Ross County lost two and drew three. 

It is tough to trust either side here, but the home team looks promising. While St. Mirren have struggled so much in the past weeks, I expect them to step up their game like their midweek performance. Ross County should struggle again, especially with their poor defenses. Both teams could also settle for a defensive play, hence, a bet on a few goals.
