St Johnstone vs Motherwell Prediction: A draw will satisfy both sides

When they play Motherwell at McDiarmid Park on Tuesday night, St. Johnstone will be looking to win their second consecutive game in the Scottish Premiership and extend their unbeaten streak to three games. On Wednesday, the home team defeated Kilmarnock by a score of 2-1. On the other hand, when the two teams played each other on Saturday, Kilmarnock defeated Motherwell by a score of 1-0.

St Johnstone

At the end of the month of October, Steven MacLean was let go from his position as head coach of St. Johnstone as a result of the club's terrible start to the season, which saw them pick up only four points from their first nine matches in the Scottish Premiership. The 52-year-old caretaker manager, Alec Cleland, is back in command of the team after guiding them to a 2-1 victory over Kilmarnock in their most recent match. Nicholas Clark scored both goals for the struggling team. Even though they have only seven points after 10 matches, St. Johnstone are still in last place in the table. However, if they had been able to secure their first victory of the season, it would have been a big relief for everyone concerned with the football club. The Saints, who ended the previous season in ninth place in the Scottish Premiership, will now have to defend their home turf against Motherwell and Ross County in consecutive matches before the current round of the season is halted for another international break. St. Johnstone was defeated by Motherwell by a score of 2-0 in their most recent meeting back in April, and they have not won at home in the top tier since March of last year against the team they will face on Tuesday.

Motherwell

This season, Motherwell has played 11 matches in the Scottish Premiership and has collected 11 points as a result of winning three, drawing two, and losing six of those matches. As a result, they are now in eighth place on the table. The Well, who ended the previous season in seventh place in the top tier, will come into Tuesday's match on the heels of a 1-0 loss that they suffered away to Kilmarnock on Saturday afternoon. Since the beginning of September, when they prevailed over Hearts by a score of 1-0, the team managed by Stuart Kettlewell has not genuinely tasted success in the Scottish Premiership since then. Since then, Motherwell has failed to win any of their subsequent six matches in the league, including their most recent three contests away from home, which they lost to Rangers, Livingston, and Kilmarnock, respectively.

St Johnstone possible starting lineup:

Mitov; McGowan, Gordon, Considine, Robinson; May, Sprangler, Smith, Carey; Clark, Kane

Motherwell possible starting lineup:

Kelly; Casey, Butcher, Blaney; McGinn, Spittal, Paton, Spencer; Wilkinson, Biereth, Bair

Expect Betting Tips

Following their victory in their most recent match against Kilmarnock, St. Johnstone will face a Motherwell team that is currently experiencing a terrible run of form. There is not a significant gap in terms of quality between these two teams, and we anticipate that the points from Tuesday's match will be split evenly between them.
