Match Facts
St. Mirren are unbeaten in six home games against Ross County in the Scottish Premiership (W4 D2) since a 0-3 defeat in April 2015 under Gary Teale.
After their 1-0 win in November, Ross County could pick up successive top-flight victories over St. Mirren for the first time since August 2013.
St. Mirren have lost each of their last three league games, as many as their previous 13 beforehand (W6 D4 L3). The Buddies last lost four league games in a row in April 2022.
Ross County have won two of their three league games since Derek Adams returned to the club (D1), as many as Malky Mackay’s final 15 such matches in charge (W2 D5 L8). The Staggies could win three successive Scottish Premiership games for the first time since March 2022 – when the third win was against St. Mirren.
18 of Ross County’s last 21 league goals have been scored in the second half of games. Indeed, this season alone, 80% of their Scottish Premiership goals have come after half-time (12/15), with only Motherwell (84%) netting a higher such proportion.
