Motherwell (home)
- Motherwell are the slight favourites at 1.81 in this Saturday's Premiership 2026-2027 clash at Fir Park, but the Buddies look good value at 3.85 with the draw available at 3.9 for this weekend's fixture.
- The hosts are in brutal shape at the moment and have lost their last 5 consecutive matches in all competitions.
- They sit 10th in the Premiership 2026-2027 with eight points from nine games, so the Steelmen are well into the battle for survival at the bottom of the standings.
- Motherwell have won one, drawn one and lost two of their four home games in the league, which means Fir Park hasn't been much of a fortress for Motherwell.
- They are scoring only 0.75 goals per game at home and conceding 1.50 per game in the SPL 2026-2027 campaign.
St. Mirren (away)
- St. Mirren are having a better time of things in the standings, occupying 6th with 13 points from ten games, but a run of one win and four defeats from their last five matches in all competitions is a concern for Craig McLeish.
- St. Mirren have won two and lost three of their five away trips in the SPL 2026-2027, averaging just 0.80 goals per game scored and conceding 1.80.
- Their most recent matches were a 3-1 defeat to Aberdeen followed by a 2-1 win at home to Dundee FC, which was just a small lift from a tough patch.
Head-to-Head
- The head-to-head record is very fine between these clubs with Motherwell winning two, drawing two and losing one of their last five matchups.
- That previous fixture between the clubs ended in a 3-3 draw at St. Mirren Park in the SPL 2026-2027.
- St. Mirren have not won their last away game against Motherwell.
Key Players
- St. Mirren's Killian Phillips is the leading scorer for the club in the SPL 2026-2027 with three goals in his three appearances this season.
- Motherwell top scorer Alex Lowry has scored twice in seven matches and has been the spark for a team that has managed just three goals in their last five games.

- The preview suggests Both Teams to Score - Yes at 1.53 looks a better fit for what is expected to be a wide-open game with many chances.
Prediction
- This game should be close, but Motherwell's home advantage, together with the fact that St. Mirren have not won their last away game against Motherwell, means we will take the slight home advantage on offer.
- Motherwell's dreadful form and the odds on the game suggest this will not be a cakewalk for the hosts, so the Both Teams to Score - Yes market at 1.53 looks a better fit than the Over 2.5 option at 1.57.
