St Mirren are 11th in the table and their place in the relegation play-off has been confirmed. Saturday sees them host Dundee United who are seventh in the table. Both sides have been struggling for goals and our match prediction is less than 2.5 being scored.
The home side have only won eight of their 38 league games this season with 20 matches being lost. They won their last game 2-0 at Aberdeen but Kilmarnock's recent good form has condemned them to the play-offs.
The Saints have struggled for goals at home this season with only ten being scored in 18 games. Only 21 have been conceded though and three of their last five have seen less than 2.5 goals scored. St Mirren have failed to score in three of their last four home games.
Dundee United are 11 points above their opponents. They are seventh in the table but have gone three games without a win. Their most recent fixture saw the Tangerines held to a goalless draw by relegated Livingston.
They have failed to score in each of their last three league matches. Each of their last three away games has ended in defeat. Their last visit to St Mirren was in December 2025 and they lost that match 2-0. Another low-scoring game looks likely here.
