Match Facts
Motherwell have conceded three goals in both of their two previous league meetings with Ross County this season, conceding as many goals overall in those two matches (6) as they had against the Staggies in 2021-22 (5) and 2022-23 (1) combined in the Scottish Premiership.
Ross County’s 40 top-flight meetings with Motherwell have seen 116 goals (49 scored, 67 conceded), their most against any opponent.
Motherwell have only won one of their last nine midweek (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) games in the Scottish Premiership (D3 L5), a 2-1 win over St. Mirren in February 2023.
Ross County are without a win in nine away league matches (D5 L4), their longest such run in the Scottish Premiership since going 11 without a victory on the road from September 2019 to February 2020.
14 of Ross County’s last 15 away league goals have been scored in the second half of matches, with the only exception being Simon Murray’s 28th-minute strike at Livingston in their last such fixture.
