Kilmarnock opened the season with 3 straight losses, scoring 4 and conceding 13, while St. Mirren remain unbeaten with 2 wins and 1 draw, scoring 6 and conceding 3 — the gap between the two teams in the table (12th vs 2nd) paints a clear picture of the game. The hosts will likely need to sit deep and wait for counter-attacks, as a defense that has conceded 13 in 3 games faces a team that is strong at scoring late (St. Mirren score in the 76-90 minute period, accounting for 26% of their total goals). Interestingly, St. Mirren concede most in the 1-15 minute period, up to 18% of all goals they've let in — if Kilmarnock start fast and take an early lead, the game could turn out differently. The decisive period is likely to be the 76-90 minutes, when both teams score and concede the most.
