St Johnstone can deliver another blow to goal-shy Rangers

Ladbrokes Premiership
BT Sport 1, 12.45pm Sunday

St Johnstone can gain at least a point against Rangers at their Perth home.

Steven Gerrard's men were knocked off top spot in midweek after a goalless draw at Hibs when again they struggled to turn their dominance into goals.

Saints enjoyed a midweek rest and will be desperate to get a surprise home defeat to Motherwell out of their system and prove it was just a blip in what had been a fine recent run.

Rangers, who have some injury worries to key personnel, have been vulnerable on the road this season.

You couldn't be backing any of the Old Firm at short odds particularly away from home and backing Saints to earn a positive result looks the value call.

Recommendation
St Johnstone or draw double chance
1pt 13-8 bet365
