St. Mirren and Aberdeen difficult to separate
St. Mirren vs Aberdeen FC - 25/01/2022
3720
On Tuesday night, St. Mirren hosts Aberdeen at the SMISA Stadium as the two teams do battle in the Scottish top-flight.
St. Mirren will kick-off this game in ninth-place in the table, seven points behind their sixth-placed opponents. They are also just six points clear of the relegation play-off spot in the standings.
Jim Goodwin’s team have been in poor form of late in the SPL, as they have won just one of their last 12 league matches. However, that one win was in their last league match, as they recorded a 2-1 victory at Dundee United.
One of the reasons for the home team’s relatively precarious position in the Scottish top-flight table is a poor defence. In fact, they have the third-worst defence in the SPL.
St. Mirren have struggled for victories on home soil this season, as they have failed to win in their previous six league games at The SMISA Stadium. However, their last four home matches in the SPL have all finished in draws.
Aberdeen will be looking to finish as high up in the SPL table as possible, as the Dons are currently just three points adrift of fourth-place Motherwell.
The visitors head into this clash in decent form, having won four of their previous six matches in the Scottish top-flight while suffering just one defeat. Last time out Aberdeen drew 1-1 against league leaders Rangers.
Despite their recent positive league form, the Dons have been poor on their travels of late. Stephen Glass’ team have won just one of their previous nine away games.
A 1-0 defeat at Hibs in their last away match means that the visitors have lost three of their last four games on their travels in the SPL.
Forebet predicts that this clash will produce a low-scoring draw, which will do little to ease the home sides fears of being sucked into the SPL’s bottom two.
