St Mirren's focus turns back to Scottish Premiership duty following Monday's dramatic Scottish Cup win over Kilmarnock.
The Buddies host Hamilton Academical at the SMiSA Stadium this weekend with Jim Goodwin's men hoping to maintain their advantage in seventh spot in the Premiership. Saints moved back up to seventh after a 3-1 win away to Ross County in our last Premiership outing.
Meanwhile, Hamilton come to Paisley sitting at the bottom of the table with just three matches remaining. Brian Rice's side are three points off 11th place Ross County and five off Kilmarnock who sit in 10th.
Accies are winless in their last eight Premiership matches stretching back to a 4-1 win against Motherwell in mid-February.
