Recent respective form guides
St. Mirren's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Buddies have scored 6, a worringly large 9 have been leaked at the other end.
Hamilton Ac.'s away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Accies have hit 5 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.
St. Mirren are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 37 points from 37 matches. Hamilton Ac. see themselves just below half way in the Clydesdale Bank Scottish Premier, showing a record of 38 points from their 37 games played so far,
