Ross County vs St Johnstone match preview

Can Ross County claim three precious points in their battle against the drop?

Earlier this month, Malky Mackay’s men enjoyed back-to-back wins, beating Livingston and Dundee United, thereby hauling themselves off the bottom of the table.

However, on Saturday, the Staggies could not make it there successive victories, beaten 1-0 by Motherwell.

Owura Edwards was sent off in stoppage time at Fir Park before, in the ninth minute of injury time, the Steelmen snatched the points from the penalty spot.

This defeat means Ross County remain in the relegation play-off spot, two points clear of Dundee United and one adrift Kilmarnock and safety.

On Sunday, the Highlanders travel to Killie for their final fixture of the season, so guaranteed safety, a place in the play-offs or automatic relegation are all still distinct possibilities.

Liam Gordon’s close-range header enough to down ten-man Kilmarnock.

Gordon has only scored twice all season, but both have come in crucial 1-0 wins over relegation rivals in recent weeks, also the only scorer as his side beat Tayside rivals Dundee United a fortnight earlier.

So, having yielded seven points from his four matches in charge, Steven MacLean’s men remain ninth, six points clear of County, knowing a point in Dingwall will guarantee their place in the Premiership.

Who will prevail on, what’s sure to be, a nervy night at Victoria Park?
