St. Johnstone prepare to entertain St. Mirren at McDiarmid Park on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Saints are clearly on top, having won 23 and lost only 7 of the 40 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at McDiarmid Park was earlier this season, the Saints carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a Scottish Division One match.
