Match preview

Who will claim three points in their final fixture before the World Cup break?

On Wednesday night, despite being down to ten-men, St Johnstone pinched a late point in Paisley.

Graham Carey broke the deadlock from the penalty spot but then, after Alex Mitchell was sent off, St Mirren battled back and led 2-1.

Nevertheless, in the 96th minute, Nicky Clark’s spectacular overhead kick snatched a draw for the visitors.

This extends St Johnstone’s unbeaten streak to four matches, following victories over Hibs, Kilmarnock and Rangers.

Callum Davidson’s side have therefore moved up to sixth, just below the European spots.

Motherwell meanwhile were beaten 2-1 by Celtic in mid-week; Ross Tierney unable to spark a late comeback.

The Steelemen have now lost five of their last six, only beating Dundee United since mid-September.

So, could a home win be on the cards at McDiarmid Park?
