St. Johnstone prepare to entertain Ross County at McDiarmid Park on Saturday evening, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. Though only 25% of the games played between the two sides have resulted in a win for the Saints.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at McDiarmid Park was less than a year ago, in April 2004, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division One match.
