The SMISA Stadium will host a match between St Mirren and Heart Of Midlothian FC in the fifth round of the Scottish Cup. In the previous edition, Hearts were eliminated by Rangers FC in the semifinal losing 2-0. Will this time be any different as they eye their ninth trophy in this competition? Here's our match prediction.
St Mirren failed to build some momentum leading up to this cup encounter as they lost 1-0 to basement boys St. Johnstone over the weekend in the Scottish Premiership.
That result marked their fifth loss in six league outings, and it's safe to say they've been plagued by inconsistency, an issue they'll need to address if they are to secure their spot in this cup game's next round.
The Buddies booked their spot in the fifth round of the Scottish Cup by securing a 3-1 away win against second-tier Queens of the South in the fourth round.
Heart Of Midlothian, on the other hand, have been untouchable since the turn of the year and might just have the edge to secure a narrow win here.
A 6-0 away drubbing of Dundee FC on Sunday marked their fourth win in five league games, with a goalless draw against Aberdeen being an exception.
Hearts' route to the fifth round was a walk in the park, they were pitted against fifth-tier Brechin City and surged to a commanding 4-1 away win.

Our St Mirren vs Heart Of Midlothian FC Prediction
St Mirren have not been in decent shape since the turn of the year and that could hurt their chances of progressing in the next round of the Scottish Cup. They have lost five of their seven matches in all competitions and it's safe to say that run doesn't inspire much confidence of a win here.
Hearts have a better chance of winning here because of their scintillating form this year. In the reverse fixture, they won 4-0 at home and a similar result is expected here. Our St Mirren v Heart Of Midlothian FC prediction is: Heart Of Midlothian FC wins the match.
