Both St Mirren and Aberdeen will be looking to extend their unbeaten runs on bounce across all competitions when they lock horns in an important Premiership fixture at St Mirren Park on Tuesday night with kickoff at 22:45.
St Mirren have had a difficult time in this campaign with the club managing to only claim four wins from their 21 league matches, while drawing 10 and suffering seven defeats in the process and currently sit in the ninth spot on 22 points, which is two places and six points above the relegation zone.
However, they head into the match in high spirits as they remain unbeaten in 2022 having opened the year with 2-1 victory against Dundee United at away in the Premiership before dispatching Ayr United 2-0 last time out in the Scottish Cup with Kyle McAllister and Greg Kittie booking them a place in the fifth round.
Therefore the Buddies will be looking to keep the jargonaut rolling as they aim at climbing away from the relegation battle, with a victory on Tuesday potentially leaving them in the seventh position. They will fancy their chances having not lost to their visitors in their last three encounters at St Mirren Park and the last time they met here, Mirren come from behind to claim a 3-2 victory and will want to replicate the result.
Meanwhile Aberdeen have been inconsistent this season with the club recording eight wins, four draws and nine defeats from their 21 league matches to collect 28 points which have left them sitting in the middle of the table with three points above the seventh-placed Dundee United an three points below Motherwell in fourth place.
However they head into the match in a good form having only lost one of their last seven matches across all competitions, picking up five victories and a draw in the run and are coming of a 3-0 win over Edinburgh City in the Scottish Cup.
The Dons will therefore be looking to keep their form as they at climbing up the table and increase the gap between them and the bottom half if possible.
