St Johnstone Preview – Can Saints end winless run?
Wednesday night’s hosts, St Johnstone, will head into this tough looking encounter against Rangers having failed to win any of their last five matches overall in the Scottish Premiership, which includes losing their last two matches on the trot.
Three draws on the trot with Motherwell, Hibernian and Celtic were part of an earlier six-match unbeaten run but recent back-to-back defeats against Livingston 2-1 at home and a 3-2 loss on the road at St Mirren have dropped St Johnstone down 10th place in the Premiership table.
The Saints hold a fairly ordinary looking home record which stands at 2-2-5 4/8 while their record against Rangers have seen the visitors win five of the previous seven meetings and six of the last seven encounters have also produced over 2.5 goals.
Rangers Preview – Can Rangers continue impressive form?
Having won their last 10 league matches on the trot in the Scottish top flight, Rangers will be eyeing off another three points in Wednesday’s clash away at St Johnstone as the visitors look to take another small step towards winning the domestic top flight title.
It may be too early to suggest this as we haven’t had the Christmas and New Year fixtures yet but Rangers already hold a commanding 16-point lead over their arch-rivals, Celtic, and Steven Gerrard’s side aren’t showing any signs of slowing down as they continue to dominate the Premiership.
The visitors possess a strong looking away record of 7-2-0 19/4 which includes winning their last five matches on the trot on their travels, so they look set for further success in this upcoming clash at St Johnstone.
