St. Johnstone prepare to entertain Hamilton Academical at McDiarmid Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Saints are clearly on top, having won 27 and lost only 11 of the 53 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at McDiarmid Park was earlier this season, when they played out a goalless draw in a Scottish Division One match.
