The Opposition

Ross County sit level on points with Saints having picked up 11 points from 11 matches in the William Hill Premiership.

The Staggies have won one, drawn one and lost one of their three matches since returning from the October international break. Don Cowie's side lost 3-0 away to St Johnstone on their return, but bounced back with a 2-1 win at home against Kilmarnock on Saturday. Wednesday night saw the Dingwall side held 0-0 against Hibernian at the Global Energy Stadium. 

There wasn't much between Saints and County last season with both sides boasting a win apiece, while the other match ended in a draw. In the only meeting at The SMiSA Stadium, coming last December, Saints won 2-0 with an own goal from Ryan Leak followed by a Jonah Ayunga strike to give the Buddies three points.
