Betting preview

Livingston were crushed 3-0 at Hearts last weekend and they may struggle to keep St Mirren at bay on Saturday.

Livi have won just one Scottish Premiership match this season and that was a crazy 1-0 success against Celtic. David Martindale's side managed 21 per cent possession in that contest and they have mustered just a single shot on target in their last two matches against Rangers and the Jambos.

St Mirren beat Aberdeen 3-2 at home last time out and they racked up 13 shots and eight corners in that high-scoring clash. Prior to that the Buddies took a credible point when drawing at Hibs and they should be able to achieve a positive result at Almondvale.

Dundee are still looking for their first top-flight win of the season and their hopes now rest on a trip to St Johnstone.

The Dees have shown in a pair of 2-2 draws against St Mirren and Hibs that they are capable of finding the net and being competitive.

St Johnstone struggle to convert their good play into goals but they may have more joy against a side who are likely to go on the front foot.

There have been 14 goals in the five matches the Buddies have played in Paisley this term and backing over 2.5 goals on Saturday looks a value play.
