Rangers vs St. Mirren Prediction: Rangers have a point to prove

St. Mirren will travel to Ibrox Stadium to play Rangers in round 27 of the Scottish Premiership. The two teams last meeting ended in a win for Mirren. On a good run of games, can Rangers prove their quality? I will provide full game analysis below and offer free predictions. 

Rangers

After missing out in the Scottish Cup with a defeat to Queen’s Park, Rangers bounced back to winning ways the previous weekend. Taking on Hearts, this team pulled off a 1-3 win, with Vaclav Cerny scoring for his side, coupled with a double own goal by Jamie McCart. In the meantime, Rangers have won their last four league matches, defeating Aberdeen, Ross County, and Dundee United. In fact, Rangers have lost only once since last October, winning eleven matches and drawing two. From 26 matches, Rangers have scored 54 goals and conceded 20 as they have 56 points accumulated.

St. Mirren

St. Mirren will hope for a win after being held to a goalless draw the previous weekend against Hibernian. In that encounter, St. Mirren had 60 percent of the possession, attempting 14 shots with six on target, which they failed to convert. In the meantime, recent matches have seen St. Mirren go winless in three matches, losing to St Johnstone and Hearts. Away from home, St. Mirren have three wins, defeating Queen of South, Aberdeen and Ross County. While St. Mirren have accumulated 31 points from 26 matches, they sit 6th, the last championship playoffs spot.
