Why this is our tip

  2. Attack and defence. Goals per game in this competition: Kilmarnock 1.0 scored and 2.4 conceded, ST Johnstone 1.2 scored and 1.5 conceded.

What to expect

We make Kilmarnock the favourites. The projected scoreline is 2–1, close to 3 goals in the game, and the outcome we rate highest is 1–1 (11.2%). We expect goals and an open game.

The two signals clash: on table position the ST Johnstone look stronger, yet the bookmakers rate the home side a little higher. A game like that is hard to predict, so playing it safer with your bets makes sense.

On goals we like Under 3.5 goals (odds 1.50), with a probability of 64% by our reckoning. By our numbers, both teams scoring is 60% and over 2.5 goals is 57%.

Main points of the prediction

  1. Meetings: 46; Kilmarnock 16 wins, 9 draws, ST Johnstone 21 wins.
  2. Average goals in their meetings: 2.2 per match.
  3. This competition, scored–conceded: Kilmarnock 11–26, ST Johnstone 13–17.
  4. Projected: close to 3 goals; probability of over 2.5 goals 57%.
  5. Not available: Kilmarnock 0, ST Johnstone 0.

Alternative tip: Both teams score: yes

Other option: Both teams score: yes (probability 60%, odds up to 1.57). We project close to 3 goals, which points the same way.
