Kilmarnock 5/6 to beat St. Johnstone in Wednesday’s Scottish Premiership matchup

Competition: Scottish Premiership

Market: Kilmarnock win

Odds: 5/6 @ Bet 365

Hoping to keep up their free-scoring run of form, Kilmarnock will host a struggling St. Johnstone on Wednesday night.

Starting with the hosts, while Kilmarnock might be showing some inconsistencies heading into December, they have gained a reputation for their continued success on home soil. In their 15 Premiership matches this season, they have recorded six wins, four draws, and five defeats, scoring 17 and conceding 17 in return. With a points tally of 22, another victory on Wednesday could see Kilmarnock leapfrog Motherwell to fourth spot. As for their recent run of results, unbeaten in their last three appearances, it should also be noted that Wednesday’s hosts have won three of their last four matches on home soil.

As for the visitors, continuing on what has been a worrying start to the new Premiership campaign, St. Johnstone find themselves firmly in a battle at the foot of the standings. In their 14 matches this season, they have recorded just a pair of wins, five draws, and seven defeats, scoring 13 and conceding 33 in return. Holding the second-worst attacking and defensive record in the division, they also find their goal difference keeping them at the bottom of the table. As for their recent run of results, St. Johnstone have lost two of their last three, shipping four goals in each of those defeats. It should also be noted that they have now suffered back-to-back defeats on the road.
