Ross County, aiming to build upon their first Scottish Premiership win from last weekend, will welcome St Johnstone to the Global Energy Stadium this Saturday afternoon.
The hosts climbed into ninth place with five points thanks to their victory over Dundee FC last time out, while the visitors remain in 10th with three points.
We say: Ross County 2-0 St Johnstone
Other than a heavy 6-0 defeat to Rangers, Ross County have shown strength in the defensive areas, while St Johnstone have scored just once in their last four outings across all competitions.
With the hosts also boosted by their recent victory, and the visitors low on confidence on the back of a four-game losing run, we expect the Staggies to take all three points.

Out-of-form St Mirren are set to host winless Hearts at The Smisa Stadium on Saturday afternoon for matchday six of the 2024-25 Scottish Premiership season.
The hosts are seventh but without a win in seven across all competitions, while the visitors sit at the foot of the table with just one point from five outings.
We say: St Mirren 1-1 Hearts
Neither side is in great stead heading into this game, both currently enduring lengthy winless spells across all competitions.
While St Mirren have fared better than the visitors this term, Hearts have an undeniably positive record in this fixture, suggesting that this match is likely to end in a draw.
