Rangers play their final game of the SPL season on Saturday, as they travel to St Mirren. The hosts will still have important points to fight for, as they look to secure a spot in the Europa Conference League on the final matchday in Scotland’s top flight.
SPL Preview
The final round of matches in Scotland takes place on Saturday, with all 12 teams in action. St Mirren will have a bigger need for points on the final round, as they are still chasing important points in their battle to secure a spot in next season’s Europa Conference League. However, only a victory will do for the hosts this weekend, as they could yet finish as low as eighth in the overall standings, depending on other results this weekend.
St Mirren comes into this match in poor recent form, as they are without a win in their previous five matches. Over that period, they have suffered three defeats, and they have been held to draws in each of their last two. However, positives would have been taken from their previous outing, as they registered a 2-2 draw at Celtic Park. Their goals in that tie were netted by Curtis Main.
Rangers have already secured a spot in the Champions League playoff round, as they are destined to finish second in the standings. Their title challenge came to an end a few weeks ago, but their recent form has been encouraging, as they have landed victories in each of their last three matches.
Last weekend, they picked up a fine 3-1 win on the road against Hibernian. James Tavernier continued his excellent scoring season by netting the opener, before second half efforts were later added by Ianis Hagi and Todd Cantwell.
St Mirren vs Rangers Head to Head
Rangers has a staggering record in this fixture, as they have won 28 of their previous 34 encounters against St Mirren. The Gers picked up a 5-2 win in the previous clash between the sides, while this exact fixture earlier in the campaign saw the points shared following a 1-1 draw.
St Mirren vs Rangers Prediction
Rangers will ultimately be disappointed with their season, as they weren’t able to land the top-flight title. But, their form at the end of the campaign has been encouraging, and we expect them to round of the season with a fourth straight win.
