Scottish Premiership Returns: What to Expect This Weekend
The Scottish Premiership is back in action this weekend, featuring a full fixture card. Notable among the games is the clash between St Mirren and reigning champions Celtic, which will be broadcast live on Sky Sports.
Celtic vs. St Mirren: A Tough Challenge for Saints
St Mirren will host Celtic in what promises to be a challenging encounter. Historically, the Saints have struggled against the Hoops, losing their last five meetings in various competitions, often conceding over two goals in each clash. St Mirren's recent league win against Hibernian, where they triumphed 3-0 at home, gives them some confidence. However, stopping Brendan Rodgers' side, who have found form with victories over Kilmarnock and Hibs, will be a significant challenge.
Rangers Look to Secure Back-to-Back Victories
Meanwhile, Rangers will aim to build on their mixed start to the season as they welcome Ross County to Hampden Park. Currently, the Rangers have secured only four points from their first two matches. Still, they aim to break their losing streak against County, who are seeking their first-ever victory at Ibrox - a feat that remains elusive through nine defeats and two draws.
Hibernian Aiming for Their First Win Against Dundee
Hibernian has had a rocky start this season with no points from their opening two league games and hopes to turn it around against Dundee. Despite their struggles, recent history suggests Hibs has a good chance, having lost only once in their last 15 encounters against Dundee in top-flight football.
St Johnstone and Dundee United: A Clash of Old Rivals
St Johnstone's manager Craig Levein will face his former club Dundee United this weekend. Levein has a strong track record against United, having lost just one of his last eight meetings. However, St Johnstone needs to perform well against a Dundee United side that is hungry for their first points of the season.
Aberdeen’s Hot Streak Meets Kilmarnock’s Struggles
Under Jimmy Thelin, Aberdeen has hit their stride, winning their opening seven matches across all competitions. Against Kilmarnock, who has yet to win this season, Aberdeen will aim to continue their positive momentum while Kilmarnock looks to bounce back from early setbacks and improve their performance in the league.
Motherwell and Hearts Seek to Turn Things Around
In another intriguing match-up, Motherwell and Hearts will clash, both desperately seeking their first league win of the season. The pressure is on for both sides, with Motherwell having injury woes and Hearts striving to avoid their longest winless start since 2019.
